There was a snake right by our pool this morning. When i poked it with a our Pool Pole he took an aggressive stance and was ready to fight! I just moved here to Florida and i didn't want it escaping to later bite my kids as i saw it was not running from me. I had to subdue the snake to find out later he was actually a "Corn Snake" or rat snake who catches rats and other small rodents etc. Please everyone take note that these are good snakes and we should not kill them. Thank you.
guys what's outside there's a snake outside
where'd he go where oh he's right there let's see if he
moves fast oh wow he's what color is that oh boy
we better stay away from him i don't know what that is whoa what kind
of snake is that oh he could be dangerous he's running
from me he's running from me he kind of turned
around though he's looking at me like hey what
what is she gonna do where is he he's right there
where you see his head it's right there that's his head well
stay away from him huh because you see those colors on him i don't know what
kind of snake he is i'll have to look up uh whatever color
that is he turned around like let's see
yeah we want to stay away from him we want to stay away from him
i'm surprised he's not running fast so that means
he's probably dangerous
most likely dangerous so let's stay away from him that's crazy
so i gotta be careful for that let's see what kind of snake that is
five hours later okay what's up guys um
so we found out our friend here is um
mike come say hi to me real fast
we found out what type of snake this is and unfortunately
um for my kids safety i i didn't want it in our yard and i
didn't know what it was so you know um you should be afraid of
snakes but uh we found out this uh this guy sorry it's not bright anymore
the sun just went in hiding um but you guys can see
um he's he was a constrictor we looked him up and stuff and
these are um technically called rat snakes or corn snakes
here in florida and they they kill rodents and stuff we're going to show
after kathleen and see what she thinks let's go mike
i have a surprise for you i have a surprise for you
all right kathleen say hi to the snake
you're wearing well i'm trying to show you guys you guys gotta learn that he's
a good snake i feel bad for him
open its mouth i did here come here check him out i'll bring him
outside it's easier to see it's all dark in here
hold on a second come here come here you're weird because i'm
teaching you guys he's this is a good snake
this is a good snake so now we know better
now we know better this is a um corn snake and he's got these uh
you can touch him he's totally yeah check him out
so now you know now you know that this is a corn snake so look at the colors
you see this side is orange and the top has what color is that like a
muddy red it's like clayish color no this red is water yeah
so those are rat snakes and they eat rodents
hence the name rat snakes but other people call them corn snakes
and uh and now you can really see his color
daddy smashed his spine where's the spine the spine goes your spine goes all the
way down here like that probably could cook him up
no
well now we know he's good the snakes are dangerous
i see his tongue you have to close his eyes
no you can't they don't they're serpents i don't think they blink
who wants to hold him not even once
you'd have to like cut him up and you could see all what's in a snake
wait can you give me a knife
dissect the snake
huh where's his heart i don't know sweetheart
i don't know it's it's possible but anyway just remember that these are nice
snakes so we don't want to kill them for the rest of our lives we don't we don't
want to hurt these snakes these are good snakes
and i've already i already feel bad about hurting him
and everything so just remember don't hurt
these guys these are good ones but stay away from the other ones
because if you guys don't know what happened was he was
he was making his way over through here and he went through our little hangout
area you can see where michael stood on that
um chair and he went over there but he was
pretty aggressive when we poked him with uh that long
pole and uh i i knew right away an aggressive snake in my yard is not
good so i killed it and uh but now i know for the future
for future's sake we want these snakes here
he's a good snake so it was i i i didn't have a choice you know
not gonna touch him i mean we're not gonna we're not gonna hurt them
right don't hurt those type of snakes super cool
no i didn't i didn't video that part because i was already scared
that he could be a mean snake so i i he coiled up
and he he was gonna strike back so i knew
that's not a garden snake because the the garden snakes would just be like
run away super quick so what i'm gonna do guys um
is just put him over there because i know the hawks will probably eat
eat um eat him most likely i think he's usually on their menu for some
of these hawks or other birds probably will eat snakes
um but yeah i'm just probably gonna put him over there because
i've noticed that we have a hawk that sometimes comes through
but yeah let this be a warning to you guys
you know that is a corn snake and they're friendly or not friendly
they're they're nice they still bite and they're constrictors
so kathleen's gonna pick up the snake and we're gonna take a picture
what do you mean it is real i mean like alive
