The scary one is the one you don't see... ...

Was visiting my mother just last night and came out and found a black snake about 4 foot long in the middle of the parking lot!  Had come from the direction where my bike was parked.  This was in a fairly large apartment complex, a little wooded area behind, but very busy with people and pets.  A lady came out behind me with a dog and I warned her of it.  She said "oh, its just a little black snake".  Snake is a snake to me.  I'm not petrified of them, but don't press my luck with them either.  I'm just glad I didn't come out about 10 minutes earlier and it be under my bike or in the grass beside it, or worse yet, curled up on my bike!

On the bright side,.. they can get in cars, too...  
I knew a guy had one get in his dashboard...

...is that a bright side?...  ...

Piglet, just think of snakes as BIG Worms with teeth.
Supposedly if you whistle to them it calms them. Watch Kungfu Hustle and you'll see what i mean.

I dont mind em, kind of like em except for the ones with slitted eyes. Rattlesnakes, copperheads, cottonmouths ect. Not to crazy about pythons and anacondas either...lol

Got two copperheads in the yard last night about 15 inchs long each. Bit one of the dogs 4 times but me n the dog came out on top in the end...lol

IF you happen to have a dog get bit by a copperhead benadryl is what you want. Generic Diphenhydranine HCI works just as well. Allergy sinus meds...lol 1 milligram per pound of weight. Keeps the swelling down so they can breath and they dont get near as sick.
Rattlesnake or cottonmouth call the vet.

I live out in the toolies in the middle of the woods so theres no barefoot in the yard after dark. Boots only.
Me n the doggies get to play with a slithery at least once every week or two. Black snakes n such get a free pass n played with. Them bad tempered other ones usualy get an attitude adjustment...lol

Think ill go find me a worm snake and mail it to piglet, they make nice pets.

I had a good one for you today BBH. Was'nt a good one for a pet though. Foul tempered water moccasin(fish snake, not a cotton mouth).

Was putting out some tomatoe plants and onion sets when i heard a baby rabbit squeaking. Turned around and see momma run up by one of the fruit trees in the orchard. Next thing i know i see her jump with a snake attached to her. Knew right away what was up and ran out to check.
About a 4 foot moccasin trying to make lunch out of her brood.
Corraled his arse and hauled him down into the field. He had already ingested at least one, maybe two. Tossed him off to go hunt elsewhere.
Brer rabbit still had 3 or 4 in her nest. Just dont know if a moccasins poison is strong enough to hurt a full grown rabbit. Ill have to watch and see if i see her tomorrow. Babies are to small to bottle feed if she dont come back though.
Funny thing is we were just talking about how to keep the rabbits out of the green bean plants. Could of taken care of a potential future problem by letting the snake eat. I just kinda hate the way snakes eat, especialy babies.

Mom on the other hand was VERY disapointed i didnt chop the snakes head off but hey, snakes got to eat to. They got their place in things. I interfeared as little as possible.
The baby rabbits would be easier to raise then the two baby coons i raised last summer though. Taste real good when they was grown too!

If he got him a little bunny or 2, don't you think he'll come back for more?
