A garter snake I guess. I'm used to them being more colorful so I was almost thinking it was a Desert Striped Whipsnake but that would be very rare here and the red tongue with black tip is garter snake.

On the rainy side of the state when I was a little kid big enough to pack a bucket around I'd fill the bucket up with garter snakes of all sorts of different colors.

Can any #Snake lovers or just #Reptile experts or there help with this?

I was digging out an old compost heap yesterday and came across a clutch of, what I assume to be, Grass Snake eggs. (I'm in north west England)

They are an odd colour and very early so I'm guessing they are from last year and failed to hatch due to the cold, wet summer we had.

Is there any way to ascertain whether they are still viable?
