I went out to feed the dogs and right at the corner of the house was a small rattler snake.. then as I took the food out to the runs another type of dam snake wiggled its way by. by the time I made it back to the house the first one was gone I figure if there is a baby rattler then there must me a mama around or more little ones.. eeks. our basement is a wonderful breeding ground for the darn things since it has all them rock piles down there from the foundation fallen apart. Hubby don't like any of them they are his worst fear!.. and I am not to keen on them either. (He would have run back in the house hell with going out to feed the dogs) my girls want to go out to play.. no flippen way now! The one out by the tree was no big deal it just went on its way.. its that little rattler I am worried about now we don't have base boards in the house yet either due to the remodeling... omg this cant be good.
