This post is about another snake encounter, this story involves two snake. An adult snake and a baby snake. When my husband comes across a snake he likes to show them to me, and of course I like to take some pictures. I would have never of thought that I could have been close enough to a snake to take a picture. Anyway this story starts when my husband found these guys in the hay room of the barn. The larger snake had crawled through a garden hose connector, that was pretty snug on his body and to make this story really interesting the larger snake had a bite hold on a baby snake, who in return was biting onto the larger snake. Even though they were being handled, they would not stop biting each other, as you can see in the pictures. We did place them in a grassy area and pour a little water on them to break-up the fight. This did work and the larger snake was able to crawl free of the hose connector. So glad I got pictures of this. I had never seen anything like this before and probably will never again, well maybe never, a lot of first happen around here.

Snake held up to post for good view of everything
