I would like help identifying a snake skin that was found in my attic. The skin is about 5ft long.

Thank you for your help!

welcome to the forum. can't identify the skin, though, but someone on here will be sure to know.

I can't tell much from the skin, but being in an attic in TN, and being 5ft long, I'd say there's a 90% chance it's a gray rat snake (Pantherophis spiloides).

And welcome to the forum.

Hey there! I am in TN as well and found a skin simmilar to that one in my back yard. Did it have a bad smell to it?

I'm not sure how old the skin is but it did not have any smell to it.
