RAT SNAKE: REAL PICS!

RAT SNAKE: REAL PICS!
This is a Live Birth Snake, and a Snake Doula helped in the delivery.

What do you think: SLYTHERIN or GRIFFYNDOR?

It was sent Parcel Tongue from a nearby field, or our Greenhouse! This was discovered by a SCREAMING WIFE, who alerted 3 counties, and myself!

The Pic (ABOVE) from the Snake web site- showing a juvenile Rat Snake is not mine, but it is a dead ringer-YES?.....NOTICE HOW MUCH DARKER IT IS IN THE BOTTOM PICS-AS AN ADULT.

THE TWO TYPES OF COLORATION... AND PATTERNS of the Adult  Rat Snakes,  THE YELLOW ONE on the Rt. is Harvey!!



All the rest of the pics are Mine, of Harvey.

SAY HELLO TO MY LEETL FREN!
Similar, or what to the first Juvenile picture from web site????


WHAT?????


Strike a pose!

I'm outta here!

Colors completely change when they reach adulthood!

God does great work! Wait, wasn't he in the Garden????

OK---HE WAS ON MY LEG AND WENT STRAIGHT FOR THE CROTCH!

HE IS NOW MY BEST FRIEND! 

 TOO TIGHT DUDE!

Harvey was released unharmed into the crawl space under the house where he can do his job! Eating mice, grubs, birds eggs, small Wallaby's and Double Beef Burrito's.

LOVE YOU ALL

  1. Harvey has just as much chance of eating as being eaten. As long as there is lunch for someone in this country we know everything will be all right.

  3. I think I'd react a lot like your wife. Only 5 counties would have been alerted.

    I'm not sure I'm so much afraid of snakes as I am of their sneakiness. They tend to appear in unexpected places - like crawling across my fingers just a couple inches from my face as I'm sunbathing.

    I don't see snakes in my yard ever. I know there's mice because the cat catches them.

  4. Kinda amazing how much the color changes by adulthood. I didn't know that. Interesting!

    Kelly-- Some of that was new to me! I also found out that the fleas from this snake they got from the rats and mice they ate- actually contributed to the Black Plaque in Europe!!!

  8. I would't be letting that thing get too close to my lap!

    I heard somewhere that animals in the wild have two main worries. Finding something to eat and to avoid being eaten...
