Here is a Cotton Mouth killed in Oak Grove, Alabama this summer at my hunting club.
I caught this hognose last year while dragging the driveway. I haven't ever seen one this big outside of a pet store/zoo. Pretty damn cool:

Pretty sure it's a rat snake, good one to have aroundI haven't saw one of those in years around here if that's the same species we have here. We always called them spreading vipers. Looks like a damn cobra ! What kind of snake is the first pic ? I hate friggin snakes !

We have chicken/rat and water snakes all around. We also have a cat, so like @Adam490 we don't have a rodent problem. This is a fairly old picture of one of the rat snakes. He was later seen crawling straight up a brick wall!

As long as I can see them ahead of time I am ok, but if I step on one or they surprise me I don't like them so much. When we were young, teenagers, we had a minnow pond that was overrun with moccasins. We used to take a headlight and a 22 Magnum and kill bunches of them. We killed 27 in one night. If you shine the light out over the water, a snake will be drawn to the light, turtles too.I was taking a leak in my unfinished basement bathroom several years ago when I looked up there was a big king rat snake on the rafter above me. I about sh*t my pants ! I thought about burning the house down for a while ! LOL ! I just don't like snakes.
I need to do this at my dad's. Seen a few little moccasins near where he keeps his pedal boats docked that I've taken care of but I know there are a ton more.As long as I can see them ahead of time I am ok, but if I step on one or they surprise me I don't like them so much.

Justifiable house burning imho. I'm not a fan of snakes either.I was taking a leak in my unfinished basement bathroom several years ago when I looked up there was a big king rat snake on the rafter above me. I about sh*t my pants !
