There's times I wonder about my DH.
The DH sticks his head in the door and whispers something that I can't hear. So I get up and ask him what he said as I walk over to him. He tells me that there is a snake in the shed. I tell him, with a sheepish smile, that I had put two small rat snakes in there earlier this spring since I had seen where mice had moved in after the live stock feed. His look could have killed the snakes right then and there. I also told him how I thought the snakes had moved off since I was starting to see signs of mice again. He walked out with me to the red roof chicken pen (not the shed) and pointed the snake out to me. Lucky for my birds in there, me, and most of all the snake, it was in the rafters and he couldn't get it with the machete. I managed to get it down and then showed it to the kids (DH had went to his truck). I put it in the shed afterwards, hopefully mother nature will take care of herself again. I figure that it worked well in round one, why not do round two.
