    The verdict on the snakes is: it's either completely harmless or poisonous.

        Sorta right. A rat snake is not venomous, but will bite you, and can cause a pretty severe infection.

        I've seen rat snakes (yes plural) break the glass in a glass snake tank, by striking at it repeatedly. Almost as agressive as water moccasins, ... almost.

        Wow. Bumped into one in my wood pile; scared the hell outta both of us. I get wood early spring but stay the heck away from the pile till cold fall weather. Wouldn’t harm one but they can get big

        Ahh, country livin, ...right. Yep. I try to load one end of the woodshed while unloading the other. All during the colder months. Just last week, I had a moccasin in the water trough. Field mice, squirrels, cotton tails etc attract the buggers. Raspberries attract furries.

        From your picture it is harmless. I used to deal with them when I worked in the farm. I found them in the irrigation ditches all the time

        The best thing to do is to stay out of the pool for a while. Dump the snake into a field. And always be sure to use suntan lotion while sunbathing!🌞🏊‍♀️🐍

        If it was alive it was poisonous. If it was dead, it might have been.
