Title: Watch your step! Post by: Critter on May 27, 2008, 01:53:58 pm I came across this fella while out chasing pigs week before last. The dogs were out and away, so no dog/snake encounters thank the Lord. Ya'll watch your step out there, the serpants are everywhere!--John

Everyone thinks i'm crazy, but I catch snakes everytime we hunt... I like snakes! ;D Title: Re: Watch your step! Post by: Critter on May 28, 2008, 05:27:49 am You're right Clay. Not many timber rattlers to be found anymore. I believe they are still on the endangered species list.
Mike, I've never been one of those snake jumpy people, but I believe I'll leave the catching them to you. That's not my cup of tea! Can you get Shawn to video some of you snake wrangling a big ol' cotton mouth? I believe that might just be worth watching. ;D --John Title: Re: Watch your step! Post by: Clay on May 28, 2008, 10:19:42 pm Ya there still on the list. I have been hearing more stories of them so they may be coming back around

She loves snakes too and (as you already know) she never meets a stranger. Hey Mike, you need another kid for the summer? She's got her own pig sticker and she doesn't eat much. ;D --John Tx, That 4 ft. copperhead has got to be close to making Boone & Crocket! That's big for a copperhead. Title: Re: Watch your step! Post by: Mike on May 30, 2008, 06:11:48 am John, send her down... she'll fit in good with my daughter.
But... I'll have to send my five year old, Hunter, up your way in trade! ;D Title: Re: Watch your step!

She'd probably come home wanting a big ol' catahoula dog and my feed bill would go up too. ;D--JohnTitle: Re: Watch your step!
