Saw this gentleman poking out here between where the side of the house meets the roof a couple nights ago. Single story small house so I guess he resides in the attic. Gonna call him Atticus. My only concern is that he might get cooked alive because of how hot it gets up there during the day?

Saw a little head poking out from the space above my porch sliding door while closing the blinds and realized it was a little rat snake. I had some frozen mice in my freezer for my pet snake so couldn’t resist giving him one, even though he is probably already full from eating all my porch frogs (I was wondering where they’ve all been these past few days… guess that explains it)

Got a call from a neighbor who caught this little guy in a glue trap (ugh). He was VERY stuck, but we were able to free him, and bathe him to remove the residual glue. We kept him for 2 nights because his jaw was out of alignment and to let him get his strength back. He’s good to go now and will be making his new home in nearby woods tonight at sundown. Godspeed little dude!

Never have seen this rat snake before. I am going to check injuries and let it go somewhere it won't get attacked by my turkeys and donkey.

My handsome sweet boy Bootstrap. He's a Texas Ratsnake.

I was so happy to see him out! It had been almost 3 weeks as he had went into shed and after I fed him and didn't see him for a day or two afterwards.

He's my good buddy. I have 4 other snakes that are kings/milks. Bootstrap is so curious with so much personality and just really wants to hangout on your shoulders and watch what's going on/ inspect everything you are working on. He then wants to cuddle up in your hoodie sleeve and take a nap.

We were organizing our unfinished storage room in our basement, and my husband pointed up at the joists and said, “Is that a snake shed?” The whole thing is about 6 feet long, and the tail end looks incomplete. There’s a large snake in our walls somewhere, taking care of our mouse inhabitants!
