That guy in the video was talking about a "vent" towards the tail portion of the snake. Tail portion.....I mean towards the end opposite the head. Anyhow, how far is this vent from the snakes poop chute?
The vent is the poop chute, males have longer tail then females and many species can be visually sexed.. Male snake also have 2 hemipenes.. In case one get sore they can use the other..

If it ain't a coral snake and the head doesn't look like a very pronounced arowhead, and it's in OK, it's not poisonous. If you've ever seen a real cotton mouth, their heads are not easily confused with harmless snakes.

I know it's pointless, but you guys need to quit killing harmless snakes. Then again, I guess they're like ducks, they're a lot easier to identify in the blind. :hey3:

The dog was barking at this fat girl, Heterodon Platirhinos or Eastern hognose..It was upright with neck flared looking all bad until I grabbed it then it went to playing possum like they do.. I righted it many times and it kept going belly up.. Would have like to have gotten the flared warning stance but it wasn't happening..
