Some of you might recall a baby black rat I caught a few weeks or months back. It was a juvi, but already had some strong black coloring on it. I let him go after only keeping it a week or so, and I saw it the other day going behind my vinyl siding on the house, and sure enough.....I spotted him again today poking out, probably hoping for another free meal. Not gonna happen buddy! No more free meals until you get a job!

If the doorbell rings in the next few minutes, I'm catching that snake and you'll see me on TV !!!

Yeah!,....I remember the little dude!

How far away from the house did you let him go before?

I think it needs a tiny little tin cup, so it can "pan-handle" another free meal!LOL

I'd throw him another meal! Though my ma did that with an iguana in her backyard (in S. Fla.) and soon enough everyday the iguana would be waiting on the deck for some endives.
