Steve Irwin would roll over in his grave if he saw what I would do to them things. Not much of a snake man! I'm not really scared of them, just don't like them.

Cool pics though!

:dance: you weren't lying when you said you had better moves :r

Re: Snake dancing
 

I would like to see their moves after a couple of rounds of #4 in 12 ga.

If it had of been me, I would have gone and got my gun, not my camera. After I shot both their heads off, then I might have taken a picture. I freaking HATE snakes bro.

:tpd:

We had a nest of Copperheads by our house, use to whack their heads off with a shovel and drape their lifeless body over the fence as a reminder to all the others... didn't seem to work. :confused:

According to the field guide: " ... 4 to 25 young, 8 1/2 to 13 inches, are born in late summer." :eek: Yikes!!

Re: Snake dancing
 

My response had I been there?

1) Camera, get a couple shots. Maybe turn on the video camera for a bit.

2) Return camera to the house.

3) Get shotgun.

4) Load shotgun.

5) Go back outside.

6) Make sure there doesn't become a bunch of little snakes in the yard. (I gots two inquisitive sons and a nosey dog)

7) Gut snakes and remove hides and rattles.

8) Grill the meat & tan hides & preserve rattles.

9) Sell hides and rattles.

10) Buy cigars with profits made from hides and rattles.

11) Thank God for providing me with some disposable income that I might enjoy the fruits of the harvest.

AHHHH "Love is in the air"----
Sing it with me!

LOVE IS IN THE AIR (John Paul Young)

Love is in the air
Everywhere I look around
Love is in the air
Every sight and every sound

And I don't know if I'm being foolish
Don't know if I'm being wise
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when I look in your eyes

Love is in the air
In the whisper of the trees
Love is in the air
In the thunder of the sea

And I don't know if I'm just dreaming
Don't know if I feel sane
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when you call out my name

:r:r

Re: Snake dancing
 

I've never run across a Mohave, at least not that I know of. It's mostly Western Diamondbacks around my area. What about up in the mountains, Stitch? What do you typically find up there?

Re: Snake dancing
 

Too funny. I've tried similar and it hasn't worked for me either. Snakes must be slow learners, huh?

Edit: Nice job Reverend! :tu

Re: Snake dancing
 

Even if I had wanted to do that I couldn't. Our town has an ordinance against discharging firearms within town limits. Too bad, too, cause if that wasn't in place there would be a lot less packrats, rabbits, and chipmunks in town. I do carry a pistol when I'm out hiking or ATV-ing in the desert but haven't had to use it for anything yet.

Re: Snake dancing
 

Doesn't surprise me for the Air Force though.:D

Re: Snake dancing
 

Now thats not fair because I wanted to be a Marine but they would not let me...my head wouldnt fit in a jar ;)

Re: Snake dancing
 

Cool pictures.

I see a pair of boots though, I don't like snakes.

Re: Snake dancing
 

Thanks.

And just out of curiosity, how many snakes does it take to make a pair of boots, anyway?

Re: Snake dancing
 

Very cool! Mating ritual for sure. :tu That's why there are population spikes during and after recessions...there's nothing else to do. :r :r
