And I need to learn how to SEW, as I’m constantly tearing up clothes, while working (yard, shop, driveway - doesn’t seem to matter)!
“Bullhead”? You mean “Bull Snake”? (And then we have “Snakehead” fish down here!)
I was a bit surprised to learn that the (officially) longest native snakes in North America are Black Rat Snakes. But Bull Snakes get very close, and are more powerfully built / very impressive.

I sew some, but lately I’ve decided that thrift store clothing is good enough for working out in the yard. I don’t seem to worry about clothes as much as when I wear something *new*.

Sorry. Yes. Bullsnake.
"The Bullsnake is a large, nonvenomous, colubrid snake. It is a subspecies of the gopher snake. The bullsnake is one of the largest/longest snakes of North America and the United States, reaching lengths up to 8 ft."

Was out doing chores last Summer and a BIG ONE slithered past me and went INTO the barn! Yeah. Chores stopped until Beau told me what that MONSTER was, and that it wasn't going to kill me!
The ONLY snake I've ever touched was a Ball Python, and she was a 'pet' of a friend. Snakes and Birds as pets? Never understood it. *SHUDDER*
