The wife showed me this from Facebook and asked if it was a rattle snake. I'm no expert but it looks more like a bull snake to me.

I open those type of boxes at work. I’d hurt myself trying to get away if I found a snake in one. That’s one large snake!

]OH HELL NAW!!!![ walking, i'd fly away from that box if I opened it.

But I agree on a bull snake, look at the head.

Opened up a disconnect on one of my wells and had about a 4 ft Coachwhip in it, them snakes are born with a bad attitude! When I see a fuse down for no reason and there's nothing laying around the pole, you can bet something got into the disconnect.

Looks like a mouse of rat nest in the lower right hand corner. I'm sure that is what the Bull was after.

That is the kind of snake that makes you hurt yourself.

Man you aint kiddin'!

I've got quite a few of them at my place and a couple are easily 6' or little better. They stand their ground even when I'm in the side by side.
Had one takin' a swim in the tank one day and I decided to jack with him a little and try and not let him come out. Trust me when I say after about 30 seconds of me doing it he did come out and right after my azz.
I am pretty sure I turned in 40 time very near what I ran in HS...…….maybe a tad better. SMDH

Thankfully I don’t deal with snakes in my boxes often, but mice, lizards and geckos are often the reason for a fried motherboard.
