Not so different. Here we elect the poisonous snakes and call them mayors and governors. And yes, they are always in our back yard.

They’re out to get us! I’m sure this has something to do our Mudgie Coffee! :coffee:☠️ Someone here must have dropped a dime to the Man! Who spilled the beans?😠
 
I’m trying to get a measure on the ballot that all members of the legislature are served Mudgie coffee in an asbestos lined lead cup with a plastic straw carried in a single use plastic bag.
 
LOLOLOLOL!! 😄

I have been laughing so hard, while I’ve been reading this thread this morning and I blame Katy for it, with her description of “wacking things” with a shovel, especially “the mole people!” 😂

I will have to remember to tell my husband to put a shovel in the trunk of the car, for that very reason! LOL!! 😁
 
I have a great snake story. I’m not lying about this. It’s very true.

My (ex)husband had an expensive tv, a very large box tv that sat on the floor (15 years ago). It was the love of his life, right up there with the Eagles, who are going to the super bowl I guess? Anyhow, one day we saw a giant bull snake in our family room. (Did I tell you guys this story yet?? Well I’m telling it again. 😠 So I opened the sliding glass door and we got the broom to shoo it outside. But it went in the other direction behind the tv. 😠 I saw it go up inside the back of the TV. I think I have told this story before, but a lot of you weren’t on the thread…

So we were like… do we put the tv outside? And for how long? How do we know when the snake has exited the tv? We just ended up leaving the tv inside. Thank God I never saw that snake again.

The whole experience was very symbolic for me. (Que emotional music here) lol

Did he take the TV? Maybe the snake set up shop, and might have come out when in moving van, years later.
 
Just saw a trailer for Dundee on Youtube. And it had Chris Hemsworth in it. Who knew?

Of course his muscles had somewhat faded.

Hens are really cute, until you see them turn on a newcomer. But, there’s nothing like fresh eggs!

My niece (8) has had hen pets since she was about four. She has a knack for naming them. The first was Rosetta Beautiful. Not bad for a four year old! Another one I remember was Steamroller

Very cute names for hens 😃 My daughter of about 5 had a white silkie called Snow White …my other little daughter of three had a black one named Snow Black…
 
“Snow Black”!

And, thanks for the reminder that I’m really talking about hens not chickens. I’ve edited my post.

We used to have chickens a few years ago. Let’s see, some named

–Chigger: the Big Daddy Rooster who got his way.
–Fluff: whose name morphed into a yell that basically came out as “FWUEEEEFF” (We are a strange family)
–Fluff II and Fluff III: Because the original Fluff died (We never see our chickens die. They just disappear).
–Mingo: the second rooster who was henpecked by the big rooster Chigger. Until Chigger died that is. Fortunes of war.
–Nugget: Yeah, we had to name at least one chicken that.
 
Mum had a succession of “Kevin’s” ,purebred Sussex roosters named after the man who gave them to her every second year 🙂
 
Not even hens,chooks to you sir 🙂
Most of our hens have been Beatrice’s ,and Mavis’s and (sorry Gertie ) Gertrude’s 😃
 
We had some hens in the barnyard at the monastery – vicious creatures! Why hasn’t there been a horror movie about a radiation leak creating giant mutant chickens?

Sheesh. Hollywood never gets it right. 😠

We occasionally had rattle snakes at the monastery, usually in the fields. But one morning, we had a baby rattlesnake right outside the laundry room door. The mistress of novices grabbed a shovel, opened the screen door and “handled” it for us.

She was significantly more lenient with the novices, in case you were worried.
 
Pop quiz for the day/night:

Without looking it up, what is the difference between a cow and a heifer?
