Anyhow, once when I was a young teenager, we were visiting my grandparent's farm. My cousin and I went out to the henhouse to collect eggs; when we got there, the birds were squawking and flapping all over the place. We looked in and saw a big snake helping himself to the eggs. I headed back to the house and told my Mom. She grabbed the 22 rifle from behind the door, went out there and killed it with one shot.
