I had posted this last year on a tractor forum, don't think I posted here.

Story: Late one evening at dark, the wife and I heard the neighbor shooting up a storm! This was unusual for him. 10 minutes later he responded to my text if everything was "OK", said these all came out from under his back deck, 15 minutes after the grandkids had just been there playing. We laugh now, but it could have been an awful thing.

BTW, for some reason, he kills 20 CH to my 1 over the last 6-7 years.

Theses killed within 5 minutes of each other.

Betting all this rain will either drive them out in big numbers, or drown the hell out of them!

Weather has got all critters on the move. I killed 3 scorpions in the house and at the front door yesterday morning. First time I have seen any in the last 3 months. Saw a rattlesnake on the highway late yesterday afternoon.

When I lived in East Texas I used to have a den of them close to house, I never found it but everytime I mowed the yard I would kill at least one that was in the yard.

Looks like the place I hog hunt. Little bastards are aggressive. I think I panicked and shot 10 times at one of these babies.





This little sucker was still alive and ready to strike even with a 40cal round in its back.

I bet not, I'd bet you'd light them up with the AR roflmao

I'll be honest, I was gearing uop to head over when I heard the shooting, that is how out of character it was. We usually text when one of us will be firing since we live so close.

So fr I have only killed one CH on the road, but we have found 2 rat snakes, the last one was in the walk way, so my daughter carried it down to a pule of tin so it would have a home grin
