When I got to looking at him, I realized it was just a chicken snake… still, not allowed as my chicken coop is close by as well.I just looked that up - a venomous water snake!!!
Thank goodness you looked first.
Have a good afternoon with the family.
Wow. I wondered about that from the head shape.? It's good you saw it.Happy Sunday all… I decided to clean tortoise boxes today and when I raised the lid on the duplex, I was confronted by an angry water moccasin… I’ll not be reaching in the boxes from the little door anymore. He was up on the shelf that hold the thermostats snd I’d not have saw him through the tort entry :-(
that’s dealt with and now I’m expecting siblings for burgers snd pool time soon..
Broadleaf plantain? Lola likes those but not as much as the ribwort.
Yep. So many leafing out now, especially ive been slacking on the weeding.Broad leaved plantain
Aw, he's adorable! Also, he's been someone's pet for a very long time. Rather than releasing him I'd try to find his owner. His shell tells me he's never been a 'wild turtle,' and might not make it if you turn him loose. Try to find his owner.Good afternoon TFO, just want to share a few pictures of something that showed up in my yard this morning. Spoke with a neighbor and he said he seen it in his yard a few days ago. Haven't decided where I'm going to release it yet, looks a little dry and hungry. Been giving it some worms and soaking it, looks like a little boy. Going out to buy a dozen night crawlers to fatten him up before I release him tomorrow. Just after having him for a few hours now, he see me and looking for some more worms. Got to get to the store.
What a beauty!! I'd be going "Mom, can I keep him?" But I know better now. You're an awesome brief encounter!!Good afternoon TFO, just want to share a few pictures of something that showed up in my yard this morning.

I will keep him for a few days and ask around to find the owner. He's enjoying the night crawlers I bought from the store, they are some big worms. Looks like he wrestling a python but he ate 3 of those bad boys, he resting in the tall grass in my yard after his workout.Aw, he's adorable! Also, he's been someone's pet for a very long time.

Wow.. that’s cool. Post us some pics when you get themI got a message earlier today that a relative of Rachel and Abner won best of breed for the American Hairless Terriers at the Westminster Dog Show. Not sure of the relation yet, could be father or a sibling from an earlier litter.

It has been a particularly noisy, foul mouthed day here but hopefully it's calmed down for the evening and I can go and do some garden stuff.
Lola is really enjoying soaking up the rays.
I hope you are all having a peaceful and/or fun Sunday where you are.

Chickens are far more polite.When you say “foul mouthed”
I don’t think you meant chicken.. ??
I hope all goes better for you tomorrow..?❤️
Good morning all,
Bright sunny and warm here again today.
I've been out early to an M&S store. I had some gift vouchers to use up but they've closed so many shops in this country it's quite a trek to find one now. I don't like ordering online, like to feel materials and try for size etc. Everything I have ordered online from them has had to be returned which is too much hassle for me.
Anyway glad I've done that and that the vouchers were still in date.
Lola and I are just going to chill for the rest of the day or warm up in his case!
Hope everyone has a good Monday!!

Much better today thank you as they're all either in work or school - until this evening that is - I'll have to wait and see what that brings.
