Lost and Found Corn Snake after 1 Year

Well I found a snake that has been lost over a year. It was lost inside the house last June. I found this snake out by my shed. I think it is the same snake hard to tell as the snake was only 9 months old when I got it and his companion corn is almost double his size(they were both the same size). He is very untame now. Could this be the same snake I lost or just a random corn snake I found in my yard(only have seen 1 juvenile milk snake in the 9 years I've been here). My other snake was not hibernated and fed regularily. I live at the corner of MA, RI, & CT.

The color is about right for the snake but it was over a year ago and I had only had him about 7 months before we lost him and don't have a picture to compare him to

Well then it could be the juvenile I found a couple of months before I went and bought my corns. My corn was very similar colored.
 
That's an eastern milk snake. My brother, who lives in Haverhill MA finds them all the time. He actually has one in a tank right now and wants me to go relocate it. He hates snakes.

I would be very careful, allowing your corn snake to come close to a snake that you found out side. Even if it was the snake you lost. It could be carrying parasites, both internally and externally. What you did in that last pic is an example of what not to do, during a quarantine period.

Good luck with it. It's a nice looking snake. Too bad about the tail though!

The 2 snakes never made contact and I had just put thother snake in that bin so I don't think any parasites could have been transmitted. Oh well he got a free meal of frozen thawed and took it pretty easily. Will let him go this evening.
