two headed snake

krystalirelan@southslope. · 10-05-2007, 05:46 AM

can any one tell me what kind of snake this is?
some local kids caught it.
i would really like to call them and tell them to STOP hitting the tank.
i am guessing this one was born this year and won't make it thru winter

Nerodia, maybe? Not sure, though. No, probably not.

Looks like a young Nerodia sipedon?

Northern Water Snake- Nerodia sipedon sipedon. It's a young one.

whenever I click on the video link I get a clip of kids in a playground

Stefan-A · 10-05-2007, 08:36 AM

Yeah, it would just play that same ad over and over again for me.

I feel bad for the snake. The parents might have video'd their kids banging on the aquarium. If it didn't already have a tuff go to start, look what else it must deal with.

I can´t see the video at all, but I know about two two headed radix here.
One is in my "alcohol collection".
It lived for some weeks but was not able to feed successfully.

thats horrible those kids think its a fish, keeping it in a tank of water

Obviously they've misunderstood what a water snake is.
