Me and my brother were outside raking/moving rocks, and out from under this one rock was the following snake. Definitely a hatchling, maybe 6inches long, max. From a general Google search of "hatchling (blank) snake", of several snakes I know we have around here (southern WV, near the KY/OH/WV tristate area) I am thinking it is a garter snake. I COULD be 100% wrong, but I don't think it's any of the venomous kind (eastern/timber rattler, or copperhead) and know it's not the ever so rare corn/eastern milk snake (rare around here, anyways). But I have no idea what kind of garters are around here, nor what they look like when they're hatchlings. I'll stop rambling and let all you people that know what you're talking about decide [emoji6]
I'm VERY sorry of the quality, just had an iPhone on hand [emoji53] I need to get an actual camera soon. The sun was behind clouds, so it was shady out, the first pic is with flash, the second is without. We had it in a small plastic container before we released it back where we found it.
