I love snakes so much... and all my neighbors see them except me.

See snakes all the time. But didn't do so well on the snake quiz.

I caught one at our farm a few years back. It was almost 2 and a half metres long.

And here it is. Wife and daughter holding it.

The creature is pretty impressive in and of itself, but even more impressive is how calm they both are. Geez

Alive. We gave it to Somchai. He said he would let it go over the wood. Although he is known to enjoy the delicacies of life.

Not a poisonous snake. Although we do get the poisonous ones at the farm. Not so often now though. After I put in a small furnace to deal with trash, they gradually stopped visiting us. No rubbish (especially food), no rats, no snakes.
