corn snake
Woohoo!! Good for you!! And yes, that is what my Larry looks like ;) His full name is in latin Elaphe guttata guttata and his 'morph' or colour variety is Anerythristic type B as he doesn't have any yellow on his neck. Anerythristic are also known as black albinos...the natural colour of corns being red - they have had all the colour bred out of them. I did say you were very close as they are a sub species of Rat Snakes.
Well done and next guess to you....

Their range spans from Ireland to Japan and includes North Africa.
Although considered endangered in Germany and Austria, else where the species is doing exceptionally well and believed to be increasing in numbers.
They are insectavors, and in one hour of feeding can increase their body weight by as much as 57%.

None of us live in the wild as we are all domestic. We communicate through a variety of sounds. But most of us really enjoy 'humming'. It's usually to let everyone know we're here and content. We're a happpy and well mannered bunch. Oh. Did I mention everyone wants our wonderful hair? Who are we???
