I wish I lived closer to you.

I am begging people for snakes to replace the ones killed by locals.

I have goats and the rodents will overrun us if my snake population isn’t increased soon.

When I was just a little kid, my dad, who fancied himself as being just a bit badder than Clint Eastwood, would totally freak out when he saw me holding my most recent rat or corn snake capture.

I’ll never forget his reaction when I brought home a gorgeous, huge female road-killed copperhead I’d found on my walk.

I was going to skin it out and make him a really cool hat band but *noooo*!

Even though it was very dead, I had to carry it half a mile away from the house and toss it in the woods.

Zombie snakes?

LOL

I wish you lived closer, too! I live on a lake and the snake population outnumbers the humans. I've learned to live with them but will never develop a love like you have.

My answer to the “snakes in the shed” problem was to build a new shed, lol. For some reason, eventually the snakes left the original shed. Lack of food would be my guess.

What is the correlation between goats and rodents?
