Copperhead + Timber Rattler
blacksnakes are pretty common round here, I like that they eat some nice, BUT, I have had them strangle a young pullet, but too big for them to swallow. done it several times, so now I kill them when I get the chance, and buy the GOOD rat bait......
when I was a small kid, I ran the woods, creeks, swamps catching any reptile or critter. caught a baby timber rattler and sold it to another kid> $5 ... thought I was rich!! his dad found it in a gallion jar under the house and made him kill it... then he wanted a r efund!??? Ha
I told him I wasn't Wal Mart ( that was before Walmart)< ! LOL
