wayned Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I was cooking a home made pizza for lunch today and had a unexpected visitor that slithered across the counter top and finally curled up behind the microwave - a 1.5 meter rat snake!. The mutts were having a fit and I figured by the time the I put them out the snake would manage to go to parts unknown (the last one went behind the heavy unmovable china cabinet) so I moved the microwave and grabbed it. I fully expected to get bitten but it was docile and coiled itself around my arm. I thought about taking a selfie but the dogs were giving me fits so I took it and let it go in the corn field next door. I had a hell of a time getting it uncoiled from my arm. That's the second in the house this year. If I was Thai I might have had another topping for my pizza! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmerjo Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 (edited) They must be just coming out. One in the outside kitchen yesterday and one in the yard this afternoon. This was in the back of the fridge Edited October 28, 2015 by farmerjo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mosha Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 Biggest scare I had was a huge red tailed rat snake in the house. Until I later had a look in the book, I did not know what it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooked Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 My wife watched me walk by a cobra curled up ready to strike. She thought it was better not to say anything, I didn't see it. She had the son in law come kill it, which I was most annoyed about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
