......found 24 rattlesnakes total in the familys storm cellar.....Speaking as a Native Texan I can say there's a small fortune in those snakes.
Everything about them is worth money.
The Venom commands a good price.
The rattles sell pretty well,
The skins are worth a lot.
The meat is yummie if one knows how to prepare it.
Pity it's too far to drive to make it worth my while.

On our family ranch, in central Texas, there's an old hand dug well with an adobe cover, that is crawling with rattlers.
Luckily, it's no where near the farm house. 😳
