I was cleaning out my kingsnakes tank the other day when I heard something moving in the leaves. It was a Red Bellied watersnake. I caught it and of course I took some pics.

Sorry for the shaky camera but I was trying to get him to strike.
Check out the venom dripping on the lens. LOL

Wow It's realy a pretty snake!
 
Why is it always YOU that finds snakes in your yard.:-(
 
Cool pics. I like the one of his face. And if I had someone shoving a camera in my face like that, I'd bite at you too.

I guess because snakes loves me.

I have pics of a ringneck and a pinewoods snake that I'll be posting soon.

Well, you know birds of a feather... :rolleyes:

Yeah, I know they love having a metal hook yanked around their necks and being held up the air while they wiggle trying to get away...and being stuck in a box and poked at so they'll strike....they all LOVE that.

You should be asleep anyway.
 
Ya, it really loves you. :glare:
 
Wow! That second video is great! Nice strike there. How venomous are Red Bellied Watersnakes?

xvart.

If he got that close to it I am sure it is not deadly, or I am more sure he is just crazy, I think both is ture as my final answer!:-))

I still wouldn't have touched it with my hands, though sence ozzy always talks about snakes I think he has one of those snake sticts I saw in florida.

If you look on the first video after he strikes, you'll see some snake spit. It looks some much like venom.

Here are a few of my snake pics from the past. The answer is I'm crazy.
