I'm a little confused here. My manager called me and said he found a ring neck snake in his pool. I told him I'd take it and he brought it to me. It was black and looked like a typical every day ring neck snake. I told him to watch for more because I have noticed that were there is 1, there are generally more. So few days later he comes into work with a bucket and sure enough he found another one swimming in his pool. He opened the bucket to show me and WOW there were 11 extra snakes in the bucket! The female snake gave birth to Live young. Ring neck snakes lay eggs according to all records I can find online? Now this new female is also a rusty red color-but her offspring rang from the typical black with a golden band to her rusty color! I have attached a few photos of the adults and of 2 of the babies. sadly 2 of the babies were still born but the remaining 9 are active and have already pooped and I through some pin head crickets in with them but haven't seen any of them eat yet. The adult female seem very placid and I put a bunch of crickets in the adults tank last night and awoke to find them all gone-but it may have been the black ring neck who ate them.
Am I wrong about the ID of the female? She is the same size as the black ring neck but she most certainly had been 1 snake when put into the bucket and a few hours later she was not alone.
I will probably be releasing the whole family in a few days-far away from swimming pools. But first I want to feed them up a little and make sure everyone is doing good.
