    Waiting for YOU!

    I got hit by them last weekend and so did my daughter. She had virtually no reaction but my bites swell up and itch bad. What seems to work to make them feel better is some Benadril capsules and drying them out with Gold Bond powder. Everything else hasn't worked.:cry:

    Pair of Timber Rattlers

    I've said this before so excuse me if I'm repeating myself. But one of the things that do a lot of box turtles in is lawnmowers. The guys that do the mowing be it private landscapers, county or state run machines like to get an early start because of the hot weather and by doing so they run over...

    Chris, I agree with your response and you hit the nail on the head. Thanks.

    Pair of Timber Rattlers

    Go back and read what I said. First off I've never said that handling snakes is bad because mild handling is fine in my opinion. Secondly, I never mentioned radio tracking and third I never said anyone radio tracks and then pickles them. LOL What I said is that handling is handling and the...

    Guys lets not be hypocrates. Handling is handling lambs or not. I'm sure that handling isn't as stressful as some think but performing surgery definately is. This would also depend in the species or subspecies in question. By that I mean many subspecies act very differently from one to the...

    Transmitters and p.i.t. taggs are not healthy for the snakes at all. If people are concerned with not stressing out the animal then leave it alone all together. So you're right about what you say.

    Pair of Timber Rattlers

    I guess everyone has their theories. Pinning has it's bad points, tailing has it's bad points. Either one can injure the snake equally but unfortunately the showmen on these t.v. shows try to glorify tailing venomous snakes for the shock factor. Pinning on the other hand is needed when the...

    Pair of Timber Rattlers

    I've seen some act like you weren't even there and then on the other hand I've seen some rattle and move into a defensive pose. Go figure.:confused:

    Pair of Timber Rattlers

    Chris, what I'm saying is that you should never trust a snake and saying that " TR's in the pines and in general are very very docile(I'm serious) but "that situation is the only one where they can become slightly aggresive" is not accurate. And it's incorrect to say that a certain situation is...

    Pair of Timber Rattlers

    What I mean is that they can become aggressive at any time. I've seen rattlesnakes both in the northeast and the southwest that are known"docile species" become enraged by the sight of a human. To the point of where they thrust their bodies and tumble. LOL :dance:

    what kind of frog?

    Chris you're surprising me here because StarBaby88 stated that the animal in question was found "on" the garage door and she put it on the ground. I guess it's possible for a toad to climb the door but not likely unless the door has a pretty rough surface.:argh:

    what kind of frog?

    You guys need to go back to the original post. That poster did not post a pic of the frog in question. The wood frog pic was posted by someone else. Wood frogs are found in N.J. but not in the Pine Barrens. They live in the northern part of the state on leafy forrest floors not pine needles and...

    what kind of frog?

    It's not a wood frog because they don't occur in the Barrens and my guess is it's not a toad due to the fact that it was found "on" the garage door. It's most likely a orangish spring peeper.
