Ugggghhhhhh!

I don't do snakes.

At all.

So you can imagine my horror when I spotted this....



A snake skin, just the one, coming out of the drainpipe, into the side of the house and then back out again.

One snake skin.

Uggggghhhhhh!  [insert massive, goose-pimply shudder here]

I don't do snakes.



* note: this photo was taken from a substantial, 'safe' distance away.  Thank the sweet Lord for telephoto capabilities on my camera.

  1. That's an awesomely huge snake skin!! I hope you don't find the owner. However, you should measure it and tell me how long it is.

  2. I totally hope I don't find the owner too! I really don't do snakes.

    The consensus among those with some knowledge is that it's a carpet snake (harmless to humans) but given the huge population of browns in the area (very venomous) I don't believe them. Either way, I'll stay inside thanks.

    Agreement also is that it would be at least 4 foot long - possibly up to 5. Another reason for me to stay inside.
