I noted elsewhere that at least I could see eye to eye with this neighbor, the other one is well, "A snake in the grass"

[carpsniperg2]

those are the kind you want around right there

Do they cause much trouble for you with your birds?  and pretty snake

[boneaddict]

They did last year.   They cost me a 2,000 or more in birds(they ate the chicks) and a bunch more in eggs.  They do however keep the others at bay and help me with my rodents.

I sort of figured I know they are great at keeping others out and rodents down but chicks look mighty tasty from a snakes perspective I would think...

Since I can't see the tail are they rattle snakes?  Very beautiful snakes!

[boneaddict]

This is a gopher snake or Bullsnake

[Hornseeker]

Check out the difference...pretty easy to tell them apart...even at just a glance... but...the bull snake can hiss and sound dang near like the buzz of a rattler.... scare the P outta ya purty quick!

Nice

I think I got a hybrid this spring.  I didn't post becasue I'm not sure.  Looked mostly rattler, but its head was missing the shape compared to a normal rattler.  If you guys promise not to ridicule I'll post it.  I've killed hybrids that were for sure a cross..... now I originally thought Bulls were live births and rattlers were eggs, so not sure how they even hybridize
