Caught him yesterday and as I am holding him my neighbor says its a pacific rattler or a sidewinder, Kinda scary since I caught it with my bare hands :skull: :skull:

[LAFD]

its a chamilian snake look its tryin to blend with the floor.

[mike37]

gopher snake

[Phat Matt]

Doesn't look like either to me. Did it have rattlers or not? Did it coil up before you caught it?

[HOSS]

Thats a spade shovel snake. They cut like hot butter.

[Phat Matt]

gopher snake
That is what I would say.

It's a California Cobra. Very poisonous too. You can put him in a tall basket, place a towel on your head, play a flute and charm him. :crossx:

May he rest in peace. If I woulda know it was a gopher I would have put it out in the field. But nobody knew what it was so I didn't take any chances.

[OutCole'd]

I would have screamed like a school girl & ran. I hate snakes!

[Her454]

At my house that would be commonly known as a "DEAD SNAKE", poisinous or not, he's getting the hose across his body a couple 100 times...
ROTFLMAO!

Best advice I have EVER seen on the boards, ever! I dread this time of year when people start posting these nasty azz critters.

Got news for ya. If nobody knew what it was and you caught it by hand you took major chances. :)

No offense Matt, but I just CANNOT see you picking that thing up - much less posing it for pics. :rollside: :rollside:

It's for real. It's still on my cousins freezer. He wanted to do a full body mount so we went out and caught one. We used to go snake hunting all the time when we were kids with my Grandpa out at the Salton Sea. If you shine a light in their eyes at night they usually freeze. Then someone else sneaks up behind them and gets them. We have caught tons of them out there over they years. We were never scared because we were with Grandpa. :)

LOL...Matts mental makeup has never been in question by me. I know it was warped the first time I met him.

The first time I met him he got me drunk in the parking lot of the races, made me miss my first three flights home, and got me hooked on Rum and Lemonaide....and kept trying to show everyone his huge sausage. :rollside: :rollside: :rollside:

[Eliminator 4 Life]

Yeah this guy is a A$$HOLE along with everyone supporting TT.

[79Challenger]

I would also say gopher snake. They will shake their tails as if they have a rattle. If they are in something with hard sides it can even sound like a rattle snake.

Anyhow, getting back to the masochist part of the post. You wanna talk more about that?
:)

[Redneck]

you should have seen shane freak when it started to do the s moves across the floor sideways he was like oh sh!t its a sidewinder and I was holding it.

[Jordy]

Yeah this guy is a A$$HOLE along with everyone supporting TT.
Thanks.
Oh, and seeing how Her454 has the TT logo in her sig, and everyone supporting TT is an asshole according to you, therefore she's an asshole... Ya really might want to reconsider that statement as she's got a lot of property, a few abandoned mineshafts, knows black magic, and has the ability to make people disappear. Probably not a route you'd like to pursue with Her. ;)

[Schiada76]

We used to keep a couple of rattlers in a glass aquarium at my friends house when we were about 17.
It was great fun feeding them rats. :crossx:
His mom HATED it for some reason. :D

[Her454]

That would be the Matt I know....lol

My therapist advised me against it :)

Then consider me an A$$HOLE.

Wanna see my snake? :idea:

Hey, check out my meat. :D

[DILLIGAF]

One time at a bike rally we were all drunk and hanging out when a bunch of llamas, wait camels, no, I think they were ostrichs....shit, I can't remember. Anyhow, we just started stabbing and shooting. I miss One Eye Jack

ROTFLMAO!!! :rollside: Your out of control Redneck!
I know some will get mad but I've killed plenty of "things" out here. We've found all types of creatures in our tents and right outside. Some guys have found them in their sleeping bags too. Number one rule, shake your stuff out before you get into them, whether it be your sleeping bag or your boots. You don't want any surprises out here.
Besides I'm not sucking poison out of anyone unless it's a female. Sorry bros, looks like you ain't going to make it. Just kidding.

[Beer Factor]

First snake gopher-let it live. keep the mice and rats down. The sidewinder- i'd fill him full of lead.

[Liberator TJ1984]

It was a little bit of a rush. :D
Are you trying to beat a free chopper ride out of Halo-Flight ?? :crossx:
You would have had one hell of a Rush if he'd a bit your azz :p

Without the risk there is no reward. :)
Kinda like your chute not opening. If there wasn't a chance of dying would jumping out of a plane be so fun? :D

Exactly, I had one living in my yard last year next to my garage. I left him alone after I confirmed it was a Gopher snake. I figured he would keep the rodents away from the boat that is in the garage. :cool:

We like to throw cold water on the scorpions. Makes them freeze in their tracks. That and get them to fight camel spiders.

[Ziggy]

I would have screamed like a school girl & ran. I hate snakes!
For some reason that doesn't surprise me :D :D

[MagicMtnDan]

The only way I'll handle snakes is with a long handled shovel. I use the side of the shovel as a guillotine :cool:

[chevypoweredracer]

amen
amen

[Rocknpalms]

It was wrong to kill that snake. A rattler fine, not safe around kids, or dogs. We live on 10 acres on the Santa Rosa Plateau behind Pendalton. We get a lot of snakes this time of year. We catch the Kings, Gophers, and Water snakes along the streets and bring them to the property for varmit control and as mice traps. I hate to see people kill a snake just because it is a snake. Snakes are fun to watch and hold, they also stop the mice from eating your wiring.
