    Re: Basement snakes

    Well, it's time for the snakes to start looking for their winter hidey spots. These two were looking in the wrong place...





    The milksnake I moved outside (it is still warm enough). The garter I couldn't reach, so I hope it went back outside on its own...I will keep my eyes open in the basement in case it didn't.

    So Cool! Even if there were brumating snakes in my immediate area, I would still have to jack-hammer the foundation to create snake holes!

    haha I know right! its seems like when I hit the woods and creeks near my house looking for snakes, any snake, I always come up empty handed.

    I do tend to wander into that section of the basement more than is strictly "necessary".

    I'm not sure I want to feed the entire population of snakes in my yard...could become rather expensive...and they are supposed to be wild...

    They do have similar markings, but those don't live around here.
