    I live in south Mississippi and I hope and pray that the land remains unharmed because we are all connected to it. The beautiful snakes play an important role in the ecosystem. The native Americans cherished the land and they fully knew that it is sacred. We could learn alot from them and should cherish it in the same manner. I love the videos and to see others that love snakes just as much as me makes me smile. Our herp society faded out over 20 years ago so its hard to find others to go hiking and herping with. I love how yall fully respect the animals and their habitat. I wish there was more that I could do to help conservation of our natural environment and the beautiful land that we need and is vital to our better health and well-being. Thank you guys for the passion that us snake lovers share in common. Keep up the great work !

    Been watching your videos for at least two or three years now and I really admire what you are doing in terms of educating about snakes (and other herps). Your videos are well-done and I celebrate with you each time you make a find. But I do have a question. I live in Northern Illinois, and I grew up outside of town in a rural area and never encountered the tin stacks you and your friends seem to find everywhere. So, where does the tin stacks you find come from? And what was the tin used for? Looking forward to your response.

    Hey Theodore glad you enjoy the show! Preexisting tin is not evenly distributed, some places (like a lot of the south) have a lot where other regions (like metro Atlanta) trend towards cleaning it up. Parts of southern Illinois still have a good bit of tin, but a lot of the abandoned barns and such got hit hard by scrappers. Other sites are places set up by myself, my friends, or herpers of past generations.

    Nice corn snakes, ratsnakes, kingsnakes and mud turtle. Sadly those large corn snake genes aren’t represented in captivity that much nowadays. If ratsnakes and kingsnakes coexist so readily, imagine how much food should be there.
