(He probably knew I'd panic and run over him on the way out!) Then he got a rake and captured the black snake that has been eating our eggs. The snake had already gotten 3 as you can see!! Tommy took him/her way out in the pasture and let him/her go. http://www.pbase.com/image/114007408 <http://www.pbase.com/image/114007408%3c%3c%3c%3c%3c%3c%3c> <<<<<<< Hi Tina, I've never been a fan of snakes or spiders, so a snake this size is a scary critter. I know how tall Tom is so that is one very long snake! If I were Tom I think I would've dispatched it quickly to snake heaven! Eggs and all! Either that or dropped him a large container, drove him about 50 miles away from the chicken coup and dumped it on the side of the highway. Then it might take it sometime to slither back! If ever. :-) ted
