just what you want to see when working on lawnmower...

is that a snake ??

not part of the motor thats for sure

what kind of snake is that. Do you know??

no clue
not a black snake
had those scary looking dull scales
i "think" it was a non ven water snake
i caught a baby one before but i forget what it was called
but again,i only seen it like in the pix,never seen head,and after that i lost it
so its in my yard somewhere

If it's not venemous it seems like a pretty simple fix. If it is I would be careful. Either way you don't need to kill it - A MonsterFishKeeper ought not be afraid of a little snake!

i hate snakes,good or bad
