I know some serpent handlers who would pay big bucks for that first one!

I killed a 1-ft. long snake in our back yard the other day. I am SO proud of myself. I chopped his head off with the shovel, in spite of my utter terror and disgust. Normally I would just leave them be, but this one was right where Jeffrey normally plays!!!!! :reaction

I don't know if I could keep it together if I encountered a snake THAT size, Sis. A!

I was going to walk out behind the church to their little bathroom but the pastor's wife told me the yard was infested with big spiders...changed my mind since it was dark...dark...

My youngest daughter handled copperheads when she was 4 or 5 years old. That child would bring them to me and say kiss the snake mama, and hold it up to her face. I would have to calmly take the snake away from her to kill it, with the fear that if I SCREAMED as I really wanted to, I would scare her and maybe cause her to be bitten. She was able to hold a constrictor when she was a little older, and thankfully outgrew her fascination with poisonous reptiles.
One of my sons collected live frogs which he would hide in his dresser drawers, when I would take his folded laundry to put up, well I could SCREAM about that.
