Midwest Milksnake Flipping! Incredible Snake Hunting in Tennessee, Illinois, and Missouri!

- The first two days of an amazing road trip to the Midwest in search of some of my favorite snakes: the Milksnakes.
Unfortunately, several weeks after returning from this trip my camera bag was stolen and I lost a good chunk of footage from most of the trip along with all of my gear. Patreon is linked below if you would like to contribute to my efforts to replace my gear and return to normal.

I dont know what's better. Milk snake flippin or milkshake sippin .
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more beautiful milk awesome find man.
These videos always manage to make my day better ☺️
That Eastern Milk was pretty cool. That's usually how they look as hatchlings, bright red. But more commonly turn drab brownish and grays.
This one retained it's bright red coloration. Nice find.
This was one of your best videos good job👍👍👌👏
That double flip was so nice. Those had to be the most purge thing snakes I have seen. Especially of a eastern/western milk. Very nice find👌🏻
Finally did it.
That flip clip of those two milks was sick!!!
This is so funny I don’t even remember this video but just found my comment! Hahaha 🤣
Usually all the timbers are just chillin. Was cool to get footage of one moving around a bit.
Come up and herp kankakee sometime when youre in IL. Plenty of tri-color and fully black bulls, blue racers, milks hognose glass lizards etc. ✌
I go up there all the time. So many beautiful snakes and lizards
Awesome video, dude. That double milk flip was insane. These were some of the most beautiful snakes that I have ever seen. Especially that copperhead.
@NFKherping
You should do a video in Iowa. We have a fairly wide range of species. I have been in love with snakes since I was young and would appreciate it if you took making a video in Iowa into concediraton.
Really nice finds 👍👌
Awesome content as usual. Ty!! 🐍🤘💜
Amazing finds!
Highly recommend Giant City State Park in IL, Klondike Park in MO, and Castlewood State Park in MO. We have seen blue racers, hognose, green snakes, and speckled kings.
Gorgeous Red Milk Snake in TN, Noah! Huge Worm Snake! Cool Cave Salamander. Beautiful Western Worm Snake! Nice gravid Coal Skink. Great trip and video!! 🐍
I just released a back rat snake that i caught yesterday when i was at the creek hunting for snakes and any other animal i find. I've been catching snakes since i was 4yrs old, only got bit twice but by non venomous snakes. Snakes are like #1 on my favorites list of animals and always will be
Did u keep the rat snake for a day?
Why did you keep it thats stressful for the snake
It’s a reptile not an animal
@@sportscardgat4334 what...”Kingdom: Animalia”
From google, it’s free ❤️
same
Saw a huge diamondback water snake a couple of days ago in the water. It circled a dead fish, grabbed it, and wrapped it, and took underwater. Wish I had a video, but was fishing and wasn’t expecting to see that.
Great video
I found a milk snake this morning. We were cutting up a tree clearing some property and it came out. Of the bark just a few inches from my saw. I have seen them in pet stores but never seen one in the wild until today. Back up in Alaska we didn’t have wild snakes so pretty cool seeing them in the wild down here.
Hey man, glad to see you're still going strong after the theft! Keep it up, love watching. I set up my first flip-site in my yard after watching you and got my first results last week, a 5ft black racer that I've seen a few times in the yard!
Awesome!
That's cool man lol! But I also, kinda hate to say it, but a racer around your flipping spot is usually not a good thing in my experience lol! They eat everything and they have a really high metabolism and they will eat all of the good stuff, I've even seen them eat little young box turtles and hatchling sliders trying to make a dash from the nest to the water lol. They will eat your kings and ratsnakes and venomous stuff lol and you'll just have racers because they reproduce like crazy too!
I don't hate racers seriously lol! But they are just so ravenous and eat everything from lizards to snakes to birds, to fish, and everything they can find lol and I don't know why I don't like them around my flipping spots, but I usually take them out and take them somewhere else to release them lol
any snake in eastern america: exists
NKFherping: I will find you
I enjoy watching these. speckled kings is 1 I like. I hunted, been in woods my whole life. Atving. It amazes me whole time out there we had no clue we were surrounded by snakes.
Cool I catch reptile and amphibians all the time.
I love seeing milk snakes they are so beautiful snakes!
try checking out the ozark area, there are some epic snakes around there!
Wait I am from Illinois and never have I EVER heard a milk snake and a Mississippi ringneck THERE!
Nor any of the snake ps y’all saw
😂😂
Awesome Video! That was a super awesome Milk! I've been down to southern IL a few times and I've found a one Red milk that was pretty big and super nice, looked pretty similar to the milk that wasn't in shed!
So cool!
I sniff the millipedes I catch during herping. Also, were those two gorgeous milks ready to breed?
I don't see many Kingsnakes in South Alabama or Florida anymore! Do you ?
That milk snake looks exactly the same as my little youth corn snake!
Nice find! That is definitely worth the trip to TN. I grew up there, btw.
Gotta remember that hole n the ground and go back to check it out with someone
Cool!
I live in SW MISSOURI. I'd love to go with you sometime. If you ever make it out this way I live 29 miles south of Joplin mo.
nice!
Just got back from my trip to oklahoma, saw some box turtles and western rat snakes, was super cool for a newbie like me!
But anyways awesome video as always I just made a new vid yesterday in tennessee I found some kings and some ringneck
Sorry people are jerks and stole your stuff. Love what you do and appreciate the content!
So pretty looks like candy!!!!
With such a large population of toads there's sure to be garter snakes to eat them. Then there's probably gonna be more milksnakes to prey on the garter snakes. My female box turtles have been laying their eggs over the past few days. They lay in June every year.
What part of Tennessee do you go to? I'm just wondering because I live in chattanooga, tennessee.
I'm curious too, Noah! East/west/middle? I'm in middle Tennessee and hardly ever find anything but garter snakes here.
Chattanooga is a great area to find milksnakes!
I'd say you would be the best youtuber ever if you responded to your comments 😥
@@robertblakemusic5492 i wouldnt call that reaching at all, if it werent for the veiwers the youtuber would litteraly be making vids for nothing, unless they are making vids only for themselves as a video album, the least you can do for your supporters is take some time to answer as many of them as you realistically can, again without the veiwers the creator is nothing, i respond to every comment i get, even on the vids with hundreds of comments
@@robertblakemusic5492 no I'm being honest with my opinion
@@robertblakemusic5492 NO I'm being honest with my opinion actually I'm the OP
@@robertblakemusic5492 I have another comment btw
@UCQZmIDmE9IOlM4mEXgGyabg well like most people they want there comment to be acknowledged by there fav youtuber.
love your video,s guys
Beautiful snakes
FINALLY MISSOURI
Ummm dunno what that was about, but I've seen him respond... Anyway awesome video as always 👍👍
Milk snake: let me go!!!!!!
I'm supporter from phillipines
Can you tell me what you mean by rip, rest in peace? Did the snakes die?
Really enjoy your videos
I don't understand why he never replies to his fans?? I even sent him a DM on instagram, NO REPLY! I've been a fan and supported his channel for year's. I was willing to pay for all his lost equipment and needs! Well, I just keep watching and supporting him as I have.
Yea I literally made the exact same comment just a little different
I’m a human, I don’t have time to read every message I get on every social media platform unfortunately. I try my best to respond to relevant comments on recent vids on RUclips, but my every day life doesn’t include combing through every comment and message I receive. If it did, then you wouldn’t get videos like this. I also never asked anyone to pay for my stolen gear, but I gave people who want to contribute the choice to by creating a Patreon and posting my Venmo multiple times since the incident. I really do appreciate the support, but it isn’t reasonable to expect me to keep up with hundreds of comments and messages every day. Sorry.
@@NKFherping I wasn't trying to come off as a jerk! I think everyone here is as pissed off as you about your stolen gear. I just wanted to help! You educate so many people. Keep doing what you do! Stay safe!
Yooo dude first off let me say I hated snakes because of my mom and for some reason I love learning about snakes on your channel. If you ever come to Missouri again, lookup MONEGAW SPRINGS. People on the cliff told me a rattlesnake was rattling at them ahead. I almost stepped on a very long black snake. Super Rocky area ontop the mile long 100ft cliff. Very accessible and VERY undisturbed habitat. Check it out
For a reference of how Rocky this place is, it's right off a huge river, theres CACTUS prickly pear the only one I've ever seen in missouri, and the trees are all growing in the rocks no soil. Multiple caves, one that goes back 2000 feet but is private. Used by the Jesse-Younger gang late 1800's. All the other stuff is not private property
Go back and check out that cave!
You should herp in Indiana, lots of snakes on the river
Look at the snakes.
When I was watching a video of your I ran into a copper head so we ran
I’m really sorry to hear that you had equipment stolen
It's kinda strange because I don't remember his name but some other herper had all of his cameras taken too
How do you tell the difference between the milk and scarlet king? They look similar to me.
3rd comment!
Quick question how do you now if a snake is a boy or girl
Hey man
First!
Chocolate milk snake...
Hi nkfherping
PLEASE come to western Kentucky!
3rd
Do you keep records of what you see?
Yeah they are called pictures
I caught a Florida cottonmouth. Bare handed
I think you should try to find lizards to
I live in Tennessee and I’ve never seen a six lined race runner
be interesting to see ya herp timbers in southern wi
You be careful in Illinois. Them people don't know how to drive, leastways in Missouri they don't.
I have a question about a snake here in Georgia I seen while hiking a nature trail its main color was a coppery rusty orange color it had black rings with red rings in the middle the color pattern was orange black red black orange it was like 4 ' long
Corn Snake?
@@davidfield23 I don't know what kind it was
If I had found that 2nd snake I would have said "corn snake". Apparently it's a milk. Can anyone tell me the difference?(in appearance.)
My youth corn snake looks exactly the same
where do you herp in missouri ??
What does RIP mean? (Rest in Peace?????)
I'm so scared
I found a milk just like the dull, one
What part of Missouri
