holy shit! i just found a ringneck snake!

[FuSoYa]

you west coast and southern people probably think, no big deal, but for the northeast, it's totally impossible to find ANY kind of snake, and ringnecks are really, really rare (not endangered - just very difficult to find).

sorry i couldn't get a better picture, the snake kept hiding under the towel. maybe when my sister gets home i can hold the snake while she snaps a good pic...

I somehow read that as 'redneck snake' at first.

i think a redneck snake would be the one i saw in the road while taking a walk this morning. Cause of death is believed to be directly related to tire biting.

we don't even get snakes over here (i mean, v.v.v.v.v.rare). did you bump into it, or was i the result of rummaging around?

 

[FuSoYa]

i was just destroying an ecosystem, er, i mean moving some rocks

 

[CATL]

Are you keeping it?
I haven't seen a snake in years, but the town I just moved to has a great pond that's full of frogs. Also, I have to be on the look out for rattlesnakes.

 

[FuSoYa]

my roommate really wants to keep it; we can rationalize it by the fact that I have to dismantle this entire rockpile and it can't live there anymore anyway. i think we'll keep it for the summer and let it go at the end of the snake season. truly this is the first snake i've seen in the wild for like 15 years.

HGFJGFHJFJEWRNBVJRBGFHRJBVG why could I never have found one of these ever?!?

 

[FuSoYa]

me neither! i didn't even know we had them here.

 

[AndICried]

snakecharming would be fun to learn (if it didn't require much time) - i imagine it only works w/ some species though amirite

edit: o, and you'd need one of those flute thingys
edit2: + you'd probably also have animal rights groups on your back
edit3: ok so according to wikipedia (FACTS U CAN TRUSTLOLO) snake charming is actually a scam

Yeah, I see quite a few too many snakes where I am right now. We've had a couple of years where timber rattlers have been a problem up here.

 

[Astral Poetry]

Damn toby, first the slugshrooms and now this? You need to keep moving those rocks.

In the Santa Cruz mountains I usually run into a dozen or so snakes of varying types while I'm hiking. A couple of times I've seen a few hundred swimming in streams and small ponds.

I am going fishing for the weekend tommorow.. there will be snakes a billion!

 

[FuSoYa]

unleash another, larger and more agressive snake to find the one loose in your house

 

[xfer]

Snake in the house= no mice
