Snake in the compost!
As I was turning the compost pile today, I accidentally impaled an aoudaisho snake on my pitch fork. I thought about eating him myself, but they do have a bit of a scent, and Tomoe is especially sensitive to bad smells these days, so I decided to eat him later on in the form of eggs. (chicken eggs)
A little funeral ceremony, some firewood, a grill, a lot of chopping, and it was done. The chickens loved it. Tomoe did not, however, love the way the head and body kept moving for five minutes after being severed.
While this time I killed the snake by accident (actually impaled it by accident and then cut its head off to spare it the long death), I am on the lookout for this kind of snake, as they love chicken eggs. They also eat mice, which we would love to have them help with, but we can't have them hanging around. If they eat some eggs it is no big deal, but last year we found one in our house and we fear for our cockatiels.
