clarkacademy Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 So for some unknown reason my son decided to pee on the tree. He was pretty shocked when this bad boy slithered out of it! We took pictures from the porch till my dad came and shot it, yes there are pics of that too. Normally I am a live and let live person but not rattlers http://s1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc437/mommypayed/rattle%20snake/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like snakes myself, but I'm not a fan of them around my children--not if they're venomous. Nice one, Dad. That one's big enough to give me the willies!

GWOB Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Time to move! I almost convinced my dh to move when a baby rat snake fell out of my washer. I wanted to bomb my house. A rattlesnake would have me calling in the Air Force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravin Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Rattlers make good eating, you know. That's a big one, bound to have lots of meat on it. Also, the skins are easily tanned at home without chemicals (salt, iirc, is what's needed). I did this once as a kid when my sisters brought home a bull snake they killed. It was smaller, but would have made a good headband if their friend (who'd helped take it) hadn't kept it after I let him take it to show and tell.

I wouldn't know the first thing about doing any of that stuff but a head band would have been cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
