[QUOTE="satx78247, post: 353031, member: 11019"] juggernot, Speaking of "pretty snakes", I once long ago (while a student at USAIS at Ft Benning, GA) "collected" (while on a "field problem") an about 4-foot long SCARLET KINGSNAKE that was "just downright purty". (That is the snake mentioned in the old rhyme as, "red & black, friend of Jack") As we were "having a problem with" numerous LARGE Palmetto Bugs, roaches, venomous spiders & mice at that juncture, I put him in a sandbag & took him to my rented house & "invited him to move in to stay". (We named him "Bobby" after a "rather snaky sort of fellow", who was NOT our favorite IOBC classmate.) Soon, we no longer had "the vermin problem", as Kingsnakes are the opposite of "picky eaters". As the Kingsnakes are "easily tamed" & like to "snuggle right up to" warm bodies, "Bobby" was sometimes good for an excellent quality SQUEAL out of unsuspecting visitors. yours, satx [/QUOTE]
