As it turns out, I don't think we'll have any more trouble from that 

snake.  I counted eggs this morning and what the snake ate were 3 

fake ceramic eggs that I had put in the nest boxes to encourage the 

chickens to use them instead of laying in the hay bales.  The snake 

had been eating eggs from the hay bales and decided to try out those 

in the nest boxes.  I don't think he'll be able to digest those ceramic
eggs!!

 

Hi Tina

Some how I don't think he'll be back after passing that experience! :-)
