seriously if you do go after a Snake for me. The Very First Thing to do is get rid of the Venom.
Hold the snake behind his Head and use a glass to Milk the Venom from the Fangs, then cut the Fangs off at the Base. He will be safe then during Transport.

If you decide to go into Snake Catching full time you can buy a Snakecatcher in Sweetwater Texas for about $25.
It is similiar to the Pickup stiks that are sold to Old people who can't bend over and pick up things.


Good Luck to all those who may decide to be adventureous and try something new and interesting.

What a freakin prejudice marooon you are. What other groups have you defined and entered to your hate list? I know it will take you a while to reply.....since your KKK meeting you are at will last a while.


Guys like you are no better than a rattle snake. YOU need to be transferred too.........to a deserted island.




Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

Oh! so many years ago, that is before all the "Specie" Nuts were loose in the States, I took 3 of the small Rattless Snakes and planted them in a Den near Sweetwater Texas, took 3 small Black Diamond s from that Den and planted them on Catalana near some Rattlelss Snakes.

I have examined both Types of these Snakes up until 2000, and to this date have not seen any example of the larger Snakes becoming Rattleless/nor the small growing Rattles.

I would appreciate if anyone sees these snakes on the Island please let me know the details.

Awesome, ironic, and extremely entertaining.

Skeet, you old goat, I appreciate how you've somehow brought the entire nomad community, blind loyalists included, onto the side of the environment. Good work.

Excellent Site and Photos Goat!

As a youngster living on the Farm in Seetwater, at one time there was a Kingsnake which had swalloed a good size Chicken, had gone into a small tree and got Stuck in the branches. We could not beleive that it could eat such a large Chicken. We left it alone until about 3 days, It became thinner and was able to leave. Most people beleived that Kingsnakes were good and did not kill them, Suppose to eat Rattlesnakes, but I have no proof of that.

Kind of like the "HornyToad" thing that if you kill one, your Cows will go Dry.
