Herping North America

Herping in Kentucky

Every once in a while I join some friends from Ohio to head down to the Natural Bridge region in Kentucky. If you ever visit the area, be sure to check out the Kentucky Reptile Zoo.

Worm Snake (Carphophis amoenus amoenus): These are not uncommon when looking under logs on rocky hillsides. Fun to keep for experienced hobbyists. I've kept voracious larger adults which tackled good-sized earthworms.

Rough Green Snake (Opheodrys aestivus)

Redbelly Snake (Storeria occipitomaculata)
