I managed to get the snake out of the chicken wire. He's as long as a T-post, so I guess that means he's 5 feet long. The hens emerged from the coop almost immediately after I dragged the egg snatcher out the door. Judging from the bulges, he ate at least three eggs before trying to escape through the chicken wire. I need some hot chocolate and my blankey. Slaying dragons before noon wears a girl out.
