He was so proud of himself for catching it. He was upset at the fact he smelled bad afterwards! 183657

Nice catch!!

He fared better than I did. As a young child I caught my first snake. A garter also.
The snake bit and musk me. The smell made me sick and queasy then I passed out momentarily LOL. Thus started my love of reptiles

The small guy had more attitude! But my son loved the bigger one since it had that reddish stripe.
