We were having a quick visit with our friends Snag and Kate and, as usual, they were kind enough to let us flip a few rocks on our way out. If you recall the very end of this post, we had what we thought was a very pregnant Dekay's Snake. Well, lookie what we found! A newborn!



This lil' fella was barely more than 3"!!

It's interesting to note that young Dekay's are darker and their neck has a bit of a ring on it. At first glance, I thought I had a Ringneck. So tiny was he, that I couldn't pick him up alone... I needed Andrea to scoop under his chin and grab him. There was just no body to grab!!


Further along the wall was a cute and normal sized Dekay's.



Man, I wish this was our yard!! Luckily, we have such awesome friends that we can look around whenever we want!!! Thanks, Snag and Kate!!!!
