I found out is a baby corn snake on the verge of moulting .. thats why its eyes are cloudy. Its about a foot long.

Neat. I wish I had some around here! He/she could eat bulb eating vermin
even the most dedicated snake - o-phobe (my mom) has admitted- gee maybe I should have left it alone to eat my mice : )
Lol .. that's the main reason I leave all snakes, poisonous and non-poisonous alone. The truth of the matter is that snakes try to avoid you as much as possible. Only a few, like Black Snakes, who always wake up on the wrong side of the bed, will bother you (those badboys will chase you!). I found a Copperhead in my shed a few weeks ago who manage to survive getting bug bombed. When I opened the shed and moved a box which reavealed him, he turned around and left.

There's a nursery not too far from here that will swap plants for snakes. I don't think they do mail order, though LOL
They raise mostly trees, and are constantly doing battle with mice. I'll look for the site, it's pretty funny
