He he he ha ha ha he silly humans
LOL. We have the rattlers and BIG bull snakes. The former isn't too popular but I've seen folks on Fakebook say they have a BIG bullsnake in a barn/shed and are freaked out over it....and someone else local will go get it to let it loose at their place. :D

I found a rattler 2 years ago curled up by the house in the AM. Scooped him/it in a 5 gallon bucket with a rake and relocated him across the river in a more desert area. When I let him out...then turned around and put the bucket/etc back in the truck I looked for him again and thought he'd crawled away...but soon saw him and was amazed how well he blended in.

Thanks for not killing it and for the people on Facebook with bull snakes if they're the same that are up in Minnesota they're there because they're eating the Rattlers so they might want to rethink their course of action :hump:

I'm a snake person so the last thing I'll do is kill one. Hell...I still have my late son's boa in house. 27 years old. Wish I could trap these mice for him to eat but it's not a good/safe practice. Pisses me off to have to drive to Pueblo (70 miles one way) to buy him captively bred mice to eat when there's a bevy of em running around here daily. :rolleyes:

I 80 going over the mountains to Reno is still closed, I guess they had a bunch of their snow blowers break down so it is taking them longer to get it cleared. It's been closed over two days, that is messing up the truck deliveries for sure. I don't see any green on the radar but it is still cloudy.
Mornin.

Around these parts it's pack rats that get into the wiring. We've never had any problems but those that live on the edges of the desert do.
We do have ground squirrels but you seldom see them. Little buggers are quick and elusive. They have to be because just about everything eats them. If the gopher, king or rattlesnakes don't get them the hawks owls or roadrunners will. If they survive those you still got your bobcats and coyotes. It's tough being a rodent around here.

Roadrunner that's one bird I don't get to see even heard mentioned in awhile,or cool lizards you all get there. Cool how your buddy chips and lizard comes running.
