Nothing. Once the baby snakes hatch, they are completely independent - and quickly disperse in search of their first meal.

Does a rattlesnake add a rattle each year?

The rattle is composed of a series of nested, hollow beads which are actually modified scales from the tail tip. Each time the snake sheds its skin, a new rattle segment is added. Newborn rattlesnakes do not have a rattle, they gain one after the first time they shed their skin. Adult snakes may lose their rattles on occasion, but more appear at each molting. If the rattle absorbs enough water in wet weather, it will not make noise.

Does the volume of the rattlesnake's rattle vary?

Young snakes with few segments on the rattle will be much lower in volume than a larger snake with a number of segments. However, if a snake lives a long life without losing rattle segments the rattle will become so long and heavy that it cannot be rattled easily and the sound, if any, will be subdued.


What eats a Diamondback Rattle Snake?

Young Rattlesnakes (less than 2 years old) are heavily preyed upon by numerous species like Ravens, Crows, Raccoons, Coyotes, Weasels etc. Even Adult Rattlesnakes are known to cannibalize youngsters. Adolescent Rattlesnakes (above 2 years) are preyed upon by larger predators like Eagles, Hawks, Badgers, Kingsnakes etc. Adult Rattle snakes have only one known predator the "Kingsnake" which is a constrictor. It is immune to the venom of Rattlesnakes and other Vipers and consumes them as a part of its natural diet.

Is a yellow rat snake a mammal?

No, Coral Snakes, like all snakes, are REPTILES, not mammals. A reptile is cold blooded, and has their young in eggs. Mammals are warm blooded, and bear live young. If you stop to think about it, birds are kind of in-between - they're warm blooded but have young in eggs. Reptiles and birds are among the oldest types of animals, as there really isn't that much difference between most dinosaurs and say, a crocodile or a chicken.
