A cuddly little bundle of joy came to visit me at work tonight.

Cute little guy. Probably about 14" long and downright calm, it barely squirmed when I tossed it into the snake bucket and dragged it out to the desert.




Yes part of my job description is "snake wrangler" in addition to post traumatic stress counselor for traumatized scientist types who damn near step on these things.

Trust me I was tempted, he was too scrawny for that, I'll let him eat some of the mice around here for a while to fatten up first.

Considering he just said he had to get rid of a snapping turtle for being to big, what makes you think he wants a 4' boa?

You pick those up by hand or with a special stick or what? Thanks for not killing it. Hard to believe how some go totally apeshit over a snake.

Western, I assume?

We have a designated snake tong and bucket with one way lid here at work for moving creepy crawlies.

And yes your regular old western diamondback.
