Just found this snake in my side yard. Is it a rattlesnake? I'm assuming yes?

I am sure KartDad could identify it for you.....was it in your driveway? Are you close to the Wash?

I'm south of Sunland blvd. I'm hoping Kart Dad can help me relocate it, its very small. I don't really want to kill it.

Yes it's a baby Rattler. Head is bigger than the body and the rattles are at the tail end. I'll tell Kart Dad to come here and PM you.

Yes, that is / was a little Southern Pacific Rattlesnake. I relocated him / her to an undisclosed location far away from town. It was nice to meet you and your brother, starmar.
