Big Fat And Slow

[Nikkijah]

..... I keep finding new ones scattered around the garden, bear in mind I live in central Bangkok so it's quite shocking to find so many different snakes in only 3 Rai of land.

sorry to ask, but do you live in Central Bangkok on 3 Rai of land .....and you're complaining about a few snakes...?

LaoPo

I'm not complaining at all LaoPo, I love finding these snakes and I love taking pics of them too

What makes you think I'm complaining?

Great thread

MM

But misleading. When I saw the title: Big Fat And Slow, what is it?, I thought it was another thread about overweight Brits/YANKS/AUSSIES/KIWIS/IRISH/SCOTS/THE WELSH.... (I can say that now as rambo is a good friend)

A 150cm water snake . . .

That was my intention Sing_Sling, got your attention didn't it

And yes you can see from the pics that this was a BIG snake!

I guess you don't have a problem with mice or rats.

When do you open the wild life sanctury?

We do actually, the rats love my bread

let the snake alive and it takes care of the rats.

I never kill any of the snakes I find h90 I just make sure they move away, not much else I can do really

Very good! There are too many Thais and Farangs arround who kill everything they don't know.

I just react with interest Sing_Sling, if I'm not trying to hit the snake with a stick(or a slug of pellets from a 12 bore), so long as I'm not jumping around or being threatening then I'm probably ok

I do wonder sometimes what a snake bite feels like
