Ok, here's what we have seen...
we have two large windows in the front of our house, the house is brick and the trim is cedar. About a year ago we found a snake skin hanging out of a spce between the trim and the brick. After my husband nearly had a heart attack we decided that the snake must have moved on or died in the walls of the house. Fast forward to two two months ago, there was a large snake in our backyard with our dogs, my husband threw something at it to see if it would move and it didn't so we assumed the dogs had killed it and we rushed off to work only to come home and find no snake and no snake parts in the yard. Now two days ago my 3 year old started screaming about a snake but we were in the house, we both jumped up and saw the snake slithering around by the window. My husband ran for the shovel to kill it and after several minutes I went outside to find my husband shaking with fear staring at this very, very large snake. I took the shovel and sent him inside to find out if it was venomous, I was ready to kill it if it was a danger to the children. He found that it wasn't dangerous so we left it alone. Yesterday it came back and my husband got pictures of it, we confirmed that it is a speckled king snake, it is about 3 or 4 feet long. Now this morning I saw it entering the space between the brick and trim, the same place my daughter saw it the other day. I just saw it again about an hour ago going into the same place. I am begining to think it is a female and her eggs are in my wall. What do you think??
