Now this was a find in our front yard. A SNAKE!!!
At first we panicked and thought it was a Tiger Snake. But after some thorough searching on google and enquiring with other locals, we found out that it is a banded sand desert snake. They only grow this big (about 30cm) and its venom isn't as bad as the tiger snake. Besides, if you saw how little it is, it definately would have trouble biting you in the ankle!!
A snake.. That's a bit of a worry- keep the bobtail around instead- to eat the snake eggs!
ReplyDeleteyou could use it as a necklace, Marleen.....nice colours!!
ReplyDeleteat least you have 2 dogs to bark at snakes...hopefully!!
