My buddy just about came undone when he opened the lid and saw this critter staring back at him!

We learned that the hole we made for the hose to the gas valve is also big enough to let a black whip snake in.  He couldn't get out after swallowing two of the 3 1/2 week old Bobs and that was his demise.  There were also three other dead.

We'll stuff the hole with a pot scrubber to keep any others out.

Live and learn.

Me too!

For some reason that one doesn't look very energetic. Must be napping after that nice meal?

I think he severed his head. Looks like it is just hanging on by the skin..

The only good snake is a dead snake.

Yep, I could tell what had happened to it, I was just trying to be sarcastic, which I very seldom do.  :wink:  Plus, I didn't want to draw any attention from PETA or the like.  :evil:

If you want to keep the snakes away from your quail.  Place some moth balls around it they will move far away!!!
