Similar patterns on a bull/rattler but heck one that small should be a breeze to wrangle up really you would think.

LOL! I went hunting rattlers yesterday but was unsuccessful. I did run into a couple of bull snakes but I never kill them, ever.
Give me a fish, I will eat for a day. Teach me to fish, I will eat for a lifetime

Why do people hate snakes? I hate spiders. I don't hate snakes or spiders, but I can't deal with barn rats. Jarhead

Well the back yard was like the movie Ben. Running along the chain link fence,up and down the trees,through the branches like squirrels, along the foundation and up and down the deck. A long feathered plant rubbed my bare leg and I jumped and and screamed like a girl.

We were doing a siding job this spring, grabbed the metal brake out from the shed and through it on the trailer. Drove 20 miles to the job set it up on saw horses and and little 18” snake crawled out of it and hit the ground crawling. Home owner hacked it up. All of us manly men jumped back.

Genesis 3;14 -15 And the LORD GOD said unto the SERPENT Because you have done this ,thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field .Upon thy belly shalt thou go and dust shalt thou eat all the days of your life. 15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed ; it shall bruise thy head, and you shall bruise his heel.
So that is why we should HATE snakes because God said so !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In Matthew 4 the old Serpent himself used scripture to try to kill faith. Satan used the scripture from Psalms 91:11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. 12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. But Jesus came back at him with the Matthew 4:7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. I suppose a ref to Massah or Meribah when the Israelites were in want of water. So you see even the old Serpent knows some scripture, only it seems he is lacking on the part that says the scripture cannot be broken.
