SNAKE!!!

Hi Heather,
I had to laugh a bit about your dilemma.  I ran a nature program at a day camp for ten years and the boys would bring me everything they found in the woods, including a pregnant garter that gave birth in my hut one night.  It was in a tank and it had about 50 little babies in there with it when I came in the next day.  AACK!  I sent the whole tank out to the woods that morning.  My youngest son had a pet snake one year named Jeffery Dahmer.  (He is a sick child to say the least.)  I have a photo of me holding a huge python.  I think snakes are pretty cool myself. 

Hang in there.  Winter will be here soon.

Hugs,
Trish

Hey Trish!!....want another pet snake? LOL  I promise...I wont shed a tear when you come pick him up

I think my apartment complex has a rule about reptiles.  LOL  My next pet is a dog.

Thanks though.

I get absolutely hysterical about snakes. My niece has a king snake as a pet and I wont go in the house if that snake is there. I know it is something I need to confront and get over but I just cant. I cant even turn the page in a book if there is a pic of a snake in it. I just drop it and run. I would have totally freaked out. you are handling it much better than I would have,

make a guy go under the house... but don't tell him about the snake lol...

Heather - Good luck with the snake! I would put a BIG rock over the hole!

I was in my dining room on saturday morning, Chris is at work of course and I moved a few things - well of course a mouse has to run across right in front of me! Of course I screamed and ran away - thank god for my kitties! They saved me and killed the mouse.

Good luck with the snake!

The only good snake is a DEAD SNAKE.

 

 

Get a hoe, a shovel, a machete, the pushmower.

 

KILL KILL KILL!

 

 

Hey Heather,
My Gary is deathly afraid of snakes.  He has actually hid behind Craig when we saw a snake in the yard.  He claims he was pulling Craig away, but I know he was using him as a shield.  Craig has great fun with his father's fear.  LOL

Had to giggle at this!
My hubby is from Ireland and had never seen a snake before he came here... (or a oppossum for that matter--should have seen THAT day! lol) One day he came racing in the house telling me he had 'something to show' me and lead me out to the barn where he had a poor little (ticked off) milk snake in a bucket. He was so excited! Like a ten year old! It was really adorable...
Sounds like you have a garter/racer... harmless... actually kinda helpful if you have a garden.... well, not so harmless for the frog.
