OMG!! I think I would have to be added to the list of things it killed cause I most certainly would die of a heart attack if I walked up on that thing!!

Just out of curiosity, does anyone who sells eggs for eating sell olive eggs or blue eggs? If so, do you have a problem getting rid of them? I have heard several people on the forum say that they have trouble selling their different colored eggs. Say that people only tend to want the brown eggs.
I have some Aracuana pullets I am going to cross with a Wellsummer roo later this fall in hopes of getting some olive eggers. Just wondering if I will get stuck with eating all the eggs.

Everyone I sell to loves that I have all different colors.

Dont know cause I wasnt there, but it is hard for me not to call BS on this guys picture. He has it in a snake catcher and is holding it arms length in front of him. We have a rattle snake hunt here every year. 84 inches record ever caught here. That snakes tail if you look aint even touching the ground it looked to me. As far as killing 3 cows and a goat, I dont know. Never heard tell of a rattle snake eating goats before. It is a big snake, but the story I dont know.. Just saying.

Did some googling and found this.
The eastern diamondback rattlesnake is the largest of the 32 species of rattlesnake currently recognized. They are large, heavy-bodied snakes with large, broad heads with two light lines on the face. Adults are usually 33-72 in (84-183 cm) long, but the largest individual on record was 96 in (244 cm)

If his snake was 8 foot 4 inches he should have it measured and hold the record. I would say from the way he is holding the snake at arms lenght and in comparisom to his size in picture. Snake in the 5, 6 foot range. Again I call BS.​

Wow, I feel proud now, called it right on the nose. Even got close to the length on it. Still I dont want to find no 6 foot rattlesnake in the chicken house.
