ANOTHER SNAKE!!!!!! I found this one this morning in the chicken coop. just below and to the right of his head you'll see a big bulge. That's a golf ball I put in the chicken coup as a decoy. I hear that snakes will swallow them thinking they are eggs and they can't crush it, pass it or regurgitate it so they die. I caught another large snake last night at bed check time (about 9:30 p.m.) in one of the stalls so I caught that one and this one and took them (in a bucket with a tight lid) a mile away and across a busy highway. I hope they stay away! I spared their lives because I didn't find any dead chickens or chicks.

Our blog (a web log or sort of online diary) is maintained by chief stall mucker, poop picker-upper and all around slave to the animals,
Norma Epstein. I write it all myself (no Pulitzer or accolades necessary) and I take all the pictures with a Minolta digital camera.
I try to take pictures daily and update the site by 5:00 p.m. Central Daylight Time, but it usually gets done sometime later.
