    I am not actually from Florida so i feel like im intruding, but here goes. I was wondering if any of you could sell and ship a ringneck snake to me, or if you know of anyone who could. I live all the way out in Arizona so thats where it gets kind of tricky. A guy from Florida did say that he could get one to me for $60.00, but that seems a little steep for a snake like that.

    Thanks for your time.

    Shipping may cost $30-$35 and shipping materials even if they over priced it, it would be $5.00.

    I can't imagine putting a price on a ringneck snake. I would feel almost bad shipping this WC snake, let alone charge someone for it.

    seems like ring necks can be found in most areas of the lower 48?

    I don't know about that, but I do know I find 1-2-3 every time I work on my yard. I just move them elsewhere in the garden, they are pretty little snakes. They are just real common here in FL.

    Where?

    ME and my family are going to Florida for about 5 days and all I usually catch are lizards. ! time we saw a snake but I was sleeping. Where do you usually find them? We are staying on a golf course but where coud I head to find some. Near Del ray beach.

    RE: Where?

    Here in South FL they are in everyones backyard, under rocks, logs, boards, etc. You may not find them at the beach laying in the sand, but search near fresh water.

    The best way to search for snakes here is to lay a few old boards in select places. Check back in 1-2-3 weeks and you'll find some snake under it! Any place you see lots of debry laying around, you'll probably find a snake here.

    My only problem with the boards is I only have a few days. Are there snakes out in the winter? Because that is when I am going.

    Lol Ring-Necked snakes. It's almost a joke to sell those. Love em but in most places they're thick on the ground.

    That's what I thought when I found out some people were actually selling and buying these for $30-$60. Crazy! I find 2-3 of them every time I work on my backyard.
