Lucky you. These have all been copperheads, king snakes and black racers.

The one we had hardly ever made a sound. Very rarely. I love listening to them.

Had a guy who had to carry a bull whip as his male was beyond mean. This was 50 years ago when they were expensive. Now, they are quite common here.

I never really liked peacocks. Too loud and they use to hog the cat food. I would have to guard the cat while he was eating for some friends.

Nyboy I have a rat snake living in my garage. I'm hoping he'll find his way to the pack rats. No mongooses for me! I'd rather have the snake than the rats. Mama has found a lot of snakes in her house, mostly copperheads. Now that I wouldn't like. We have a snake in the chicken coop again. I wish we could relocate it to the garage too, maybe even the main house since these rats are so cheeky running about day and night.

I would run for the hills if I had a rat problem. One thing that gives me the willies is rodents ,rat or mouse which ever. Every spring we get a few mice coming in and I have a pretty massive mouse arsenal, and get on the hunt first sign of them. I could not share space with them I would have to sleep outside lol.
