Good snake to have around.

This little fella was trying to get warmed up before the storm yesterday afternoon.


People complain about him, however I leave him alone because this is a snake you should be thankful to have around.  

This is a Southern Black Racer.  The average size is 
20 to 56 inches, however I believe the longest on record is 72 inches.

They eat lizards, snakes, frogs, insects, rodents and small birds.

You should take note that the Black Racer has a white
chin and sometimes a brown chin. The Indigo has a 
black or reddish orange chin
