I have shot three since Saturday. One was in the act of suffocating a chick, ( I know, choking the chicken!), and the other two here curled up in nesting boxes in my Barred Rock cage last night. Naturally, I almost "gathered" them when I was collecting eggs. Shot one and thought we were done, then we found another one right next to it. It is all a bit too much for me. I hate snakes!!!!
Have any of you tried mothballs? I have heard that they will keep snakes away.
They were all about 5 feet long! Black and yellow. Those are chicked snakes, right? I usually get one or two a year, but three since Saturday? No wonder my eggs are all gone missing.
