Eastern Racer
Mother snake with babies. Mother is 3 foot long.
Parking lot of office building
Juveniles can definitely be tough! The racer is going to have more prominent patterning towards the front, whereas the coachwhip just has some banding that doesn't really form a pattern
@JeffreyDuby and @Liam, I am not a herpatological expert in any manner. I have to say, Jeffrey that when I looked up the racer there were some greak google images that were on point. Liam what do you think? Looks like a racer to me.
Not sure If its a Southern or Everglades Racer hard to tell when its a juv. since you are in that range it could be either or
