It was an accident, I didn't mean to write snack!! Tho I have always wanted to try snake, I wonder if it tastes like alligator?[/quote]

It's kinda on the dry side. While still on the Yuma reservation the Indian kids we played with would show us how to kill and cook darn near everything that moved. (Mud hens taste terrible!!) Fish and snakes, birds, etc were cleaned, salted and wrapped in big leaves and then mud and then put in the coals of a camp fire. Then we would play in the old prison and wind up hungry enough to eat darn near anything. And we could sell the skins, insides cleaned immediately with wood ashes and wrapped around a stick. Men loved them for hat bands.

This house might have had a lot of rodents for such a huge amount of snakes to move in!! Must have had something to
make them do it. Could it be they were flooded out?
