On the subject of snakes, I am told that I am as some would say, allergic to snakes. If I touch any reptile (supposedly, though I havent tested it out), the type of arthritis I have will be sent into shock mode, and I would be in extreme pain to the point of not being able to move, and trying to keep the urge of vomiting from happening.
We had another snake on the porch today, a kingsnake, which kills rattlesnakes... He was just wandering around- I think he was sniffing out the rattler from last week! I picked him up and set him over the fence.
