Snake Attack!

Been lurking around for awhile but figured since you guys over there don't have a lot of snakes I'd post a quick video of a visitor who came by my house in central Texas.

Fair play but sod that, I would of shot the thing first 😁.

What flavour snake is that? Impressive mouth size.

However I am more concerned about your greens. Something has been eating them.

This guy got stuck in our drain and I had to cut him out.

 

It was a harmless Grass Snake. Told the wife it was an escaped Coastal Taipan, but I really wish I hadn't

 

It was about 2 1/2 feet long... biggest I've seen in the UK.

Grass snakes can get pretty long. We have them here and the biggest I have seen was long enough to go right across a pallet and partway back - I reckon around 5'6".

Remember snakes are only posionous if they bite you (not including the ones that spit at you...)

Yep, they say snakes only strike 1st if they feel threatened which is fair enough.

 

If I was armed with a 12 gauge and met a snake (of any kind) I'd react in exactly the same way.

Bit crap in my opinion. Stay away and so will they.

 

Killing animals out of fear is total bollocks

You're probably right but they make a real nice pair of boots.
