garden reptails

[ronnyjon]

I have lived in Gloucester all my life and throughout childhood and into adulthood have enjoyed looking for slow worms. While lokking for slow worms with my son i came across a reptail skin. In all my years of slow worm hunting i have never come across a slow worm skin before and am wondering if this is infact a adder or grass snake skin

I've never heard of a Slow Worm shedding, if its brown, possibly a bronzey red, or green, it will be one or the other of the snakes, if you google 'British Snakes', you'll be able to compare the markings.

All reptiles shed so yes it could be a slow worm slough but it could also be a grass snake if it has a patern on it you might be able to find out what it is
