There's an old saying around here that where there is one, there will always be another one. Seems to hold true in my experience. Last one I saw was rapidly slithering away from me. Later in the year, it would have been coming toward me to attack. I can smell copperheads - can't describe the odor, but I know it when I smell it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4429758274949022857.post-82473805220538922922011-06-30T10:03:39.799-06:002011-06-30T10:03:39.799-06:00HB You're right...

Like they said, you can divide them up.

The jam looks great! we call those copper heads here, if it is, it is poisionous. I hate those things! I agree look it up to be sure, they hide under rocks, old boards, etc. Better to be on the safe side!anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03269208573774815462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4429758274949022857.post-39369575876719533672011-06-29T19:59:29.482-06:002011-06-29T19:59:29.482-06:00Sci, I am almost sure that snake is a copperhead! ...Sci, I am almost sure that snake is a copperhead!

If so, they multiply in tubers underground and actually benefit from having the tubers dug up and separated into smaller clumps. It would help you spread some flowers like you want at no expense. <br /><br />: )HossBosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13444735851486747330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4429758274949022857.post-74666324175298106712011-06-29T17:48:10.186-06:002011-06-29T17:48:10.186-06:00They will even try and eat a bigger chicken.

They're not poisonous but they will eat any critter small enough to get their mouth around ...including baby bunnies. They squeeze a small animal until it suffocates and stops wiggling, then stretch their mouth over it. They can open that mouth WIDE. <br /><br />I know your bunny cages are off the ground. The snakes will smell them from a distance and come check things out. If the big bunnies see or suspect a snake, they will THUMP loudly and repeatedly, especially the bucks. Does tend to hunker down and get quiet. So if your bucks are thumping, take a hoe or a 410 and go snake hunting. Or send Mars. Yeah, come to think of it, you better send Mars.
