I saw this snake going into the coop! What a scare! None of the chickens seemed scared nor seemed to notice it. Here is the snake. What type of snake is it?

He was worried it would come back...eat the chickens... also we aren’t experts so I did not know it was non venomous
I'm with you there! I don't know much about snakes, but if you ever need any help identifying them, I have a friend who will super happily do that! She will also relocate snakes if you are in central VA 😊

You might want to familiarize yourself with the snakes in your area so that you'll know the difference in the future. That's a colubrid, definitely not venomous, and good for helping to keep the rodent population down. :)

Don't believe I've seen anyone use proper terminology here. About had an aneurysm when I saw colubrid. :yesss:
