I left the corn feeder outside the pens because we still want to shoot hogs but I don't want them eating protein.

Came across this four foot rattler and left everything at the barn. I went redneck Indian Jones on it with some jumper cables for the kill smile

First horny toad of the spring.

How'd you get the snake to hold still why you hooked him up to the battery?


To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

I think the horned toads are starting to come back a little. Seems like we see a few on most of our Panhandle trips.

Horned toads disappeared around Houston many years ago. I think the fire ants killed them all. Glad to know they're still around your area

Feeder and pen look great !
I would have loved to see you swinging at that rattler with the jumper cables, ha ha.
I bet that was a sight to see.

Nice feeder set up were the photos taken from a blind? 4 foot is a pretty good snake, skin it?

Everything looks great.

Killing a rattler with jumper cables is a man's man way of doing it. Impressive.
