If it’s a Northern watersnake, it is non-venomous

Poisonous= you bite it, you die Venomous = it bites you, you die

(Dying not found in all cases, side effects may vary)

Looks like it's been eating lots of mice.

Are you fat shaming a snake? lol

[-] ForestOrca@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

Nope. Just noting that it looks healthy, and should not be harmed as it's doing something useful around the farm. Snek just doing their job, living their best life.
