ANOTHER "My Hero"
This time, it's 12 yo ds who saved the day. A red racer was in Chloe's pen. Chloe, our female potbelly pig, had a problem a month or so back with a leg. She couldn't stand, never mind walk. DD nursed her back to health. We identified puncture marks, and thought either a snake or spider might have bit, but we never knew for sure.
Anyways, the snake had a hole, and was sticking it's head out. I didn't witness the event first hand, but ds proudly brought his prize 'round to be admired. No pics this time. It wasn't as big as the one dh got, and it definitely wasn't the one that crossed my path the other day in the garden. I thought that one was a red racer, but it isn't the same. It's dark red across it's back with black on its sides. Ds saw that one, he was certain it had gold coloring on its belly. I don't think it's a king snake, but I have no idea at this point.
At any rate, my "hero in training" did his Mama proud! Muy valiente! |
