Once I had a group of chickens and as they will do, one of the hens nested on the ground in a corner of the chicken house. I saw
a Southern Hognose snake that had swallowed the hen's head and neck but was stopped there as the body was much too large for him. I shook his tail and he released himself from the hen and crawled away. The time of year was early spring and the temps were low 60s F at night, 70s day.
