I'm not sure if I've ever caught a Milk snake before or not. When I was a kid, me and my buddies caught snakes all the time. It's pretty obvious if it's a Black Snake, or a Garter Snake, or a Green Snake. But all these red and orange and brown colored snakes with splotches running down their back, we always just called them "Corn Snakes."
Now thinking back, I'm wondering if some of those "Corn Snakes" I caught were in fact Milk Snakes. Apparently we have both here in Tennessee, and this snake is by far the smallest I've ever caught.
I think of a Milk snake looking like a Coral Snake with the colorful bands, and saw the Splotches on this one and just figured I had a baby corn snake.
Anyway, I thank you for your insight, and now I just have to find some really small pinkies, or perhaps try cutting some in half.
