    A Sticky Situation

    I volunteer at my kid's school doing maintenance work. While I was sitting in my work area I heard a couple kids coming down the hall yelling for me. They found me and told me there was a snake in there room stuck on some tape. I went to their room and found this beautiful female T. radix female stuck in two places to some packing tape. I stopped by the kitchen and got a bottle of cooking oil and went back to my room. She was caught on the jaw and the first third of her body. Using the cooking oil I was able to remove her in short order.
    She was give a quick bath to remove the cooking oil and placed in a small container. She seems to be in good health but refused to eat any earthworms. She's at home on the Ranch now and resting. I think she'll make a full recovery.
    I named her Sticky

    They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

    Lucky girl. If you weren't working there it could have been very different.

    I'm glad I was there to save the little radixes, no matter what side of town she's from.

    Sticky ate her worms during the night. I think she's going to be okay.

    Is she going to live out her life in the comfort of the Ranch, or in the comfort of the yard?
