    And in other news ... watch your step... rattlebugs are out

    Snake wranglers/hunters caught these out of one den at our ranch in Mills cnty. Said they found 2-3 more big dens but didn’t have time . They are coming back out in next couple of weeks to raid those!!! 29 total with the biggest 5’ about as round as your forearm. Wish I could of been there

    I'm curious as to what you are going to do with those.

      My *** ain’t doing anything with them. But the guys catching them sale some to pharmaceutical companies for anti-venom, other to meat buyers

            They are out year around here in GA. Frost on the ground in the morning snakes on the ground at lunch.

            I've never seen more than one buzz worm in a day though. 29 is crazy. I'd move.

                  I’ve killed them in Dec and January out sunning. But this time of year they really come out.

                    Actually it seems a bit late for them to still be around the dens especially that far south of here and the nice temps we've had.

                          I've got my two little kids that live at the ranch full time. Texting my wife now to keep an eye out. They have been gone for a week on spring break. I hate rattlesnakes.

                              Just walked about 2 miles of fence in Llano spraying trees for my skid steer operator and thankfully didn’t find any!
