Game Camera

[BGKYSmoker]

The past few egg gathering days I have noticed that some of the green eggs have been disappearing, have them in the morning but only one or two when I collect around 5-6p. Leading me to think maybe a snake is eating them? No 4 leg critter as the coop is wired all around and behind chain link fence. I have no chickens dead or missing.

So I bought a game cam to install. I was going to go with wifi outdoor cam but we have this stupid google wifi and its mesh junk.

Yep. probably a snake..

Had a work buddy bit by a copper head while gathering eggs, treatment is ugly for snake bites , I would put some big sticky pads where the chickens cant get to them,

When I was younger at home and had no sense to me, I was out in the front of my folks house catching rattlers, southern pacific, Mojave green, western diamondback and sidewinder...

I got just a small prick on the palm of my hand from a southern pacific, spent the night in the hospital with my hand swollen up and anti venom being pumped in me.

Now I'm old and have a bit more sense...lol

I have a Black snake that lives in the landscape around the house . I see him every now and then , but he doesn't bother me so I don't bother him . I also don't see any mice , and he took care of the mole that was in the yard .

Yesterday the neighbor gave me some sod he had leftover . I loaded it in a wheel barrel and went in the house . Came back out to put it down and my buddy had got up in the mix of sod .
I grabbed a section , ( and the snake ) . Damn thing went up my arm and over my shoulder . I may or may not have screamed out loud .

So that was the scream I heard...lol

I guess if it was a Black Mamba, you wouldn't have made your last post.

I'd have screamed as well! Then went and changed my drawers!

Funny thing is Miss Linda came into the living room yesterday and asked if I heard what sounded to her like a scream. True story!!!!!
