When I was a child, I played with the cauliflower snake, using a wet cloth to bite it, and then pulling it hard, pulling its teeth out, and then coiling it around the neck, cool, feeding it raw eggs to eat.
Before catching the idle nothing specially let the cauliflower snake bite, is to stroke it, after biting the wound is relatively large, not very good to stop bleeding, and itchy, nothing else.
My cauliflower snake does not extract its teeth, and puts it at home to move freely, because as long as it does not grasp it hard and does not bite, buy loach from the fish market and put it in the fish tank on the windowsill, put it on the fish tank for the first time and then leave, until it sees the loach in the fish tank move, it actively catches the loach and eats it, it does not have to care about it, and later it will find the fish tank on the window sill to hunt the loach, and when it is hot in the summer, it will hang it in the neck to cool down, and it will obediently crawl over in the neck.
There is a kind of cauliflower snake poisonous, but the poisonous fangs are deep in the mouth, in general, when biting the prey, the poisonous fangs cannot bite, and it is mistaken for the cauliflower snake is not poisonous.
In my impression, cauliflower snakes are very gentle, and I have rarely heard of being bitten by cauliflower snakes. We rural people have seen a lot of snakes, other poisonous snakes as long as they are seen, basically killed, but the cauliflower snake is particularly tolerant, cauliflower snake is often treated as a snake, if the home finds a cauliflower snake, most of them politely greet it: don't scare the family! And the cauliflower snake is also quite informed. At least, I'm in my forties, and I've never heard of a local family being hurt by a cauliflower snake.
Do you know? We call it the One Mile King Snake here, and the Ten Mile Non-Venomous Snake. The great king snake is called yellow dried in our place, has a king stripe on its head, has yellow markings on its body, is the most ferocious, feeds on other snakes, and can also eat birds and some rodents. Cauliflower snakes have diamond-shaped or irregular cauliflower-like blue patterns, mostly after the spring equinox or Mid-Autumn Festival, feeding on small rodents or frogs, etc., there is no phenomenon of eating other snakes, please judge the author so far!
The reality is that where there are cauliflower snakes, there are also poisonous snakes. In the summer of our hometown, if you go out to work, especially in the sweltering afternoon after the rain, it is very likely to encounter cauliflower snakes, rod snakes, earth-bellied snakes, green bamboo labels, black snakes, and eye snakes, and even the chicken crown snakes that have been heard of.
Therefore, the claim that there are cauliflower snakes and ten miles of non-venomous snakes is not true at all. Xiao Qing rarely sees, that snake is very fast, the summer sun is dazzling, even more unsightly, and likes to fly over people's heads, and there are dirt ridges in the mountains!
After 70, when I was a child, the child king of our village caught a snake more than 1 meter, peeled off the snake scalp, he caught the snake head, and the other person caught and grasped the snake skin, and the two people pulled hard at the same time, peeled a cylinder and put it on the belt, which was very cool in summer. Snakeheads are not triangular.
I have seen the biggest cauliflower snake or childhood in the countryside, the big cat of the family under 5 kittens, of which 4 were bought by other people, everyone knows that in the 90s, almost every family in the countryside has cats, it should be around 4-5 o'clock in the morning, the big cats in the family are screaming very fiercely, jumping up and down, they are all woken up, turn on the lights and go out to see a big jump, a big snake, the kitten is entangled with the snake, after saving the kitten, the adults will grab the snake's tail and frantically shake, the snake's head is smashed. Throwing it into the trash can can't hold this snake, and the trash can of that era is not comparable to the current trash can.
When I was a child, I often saw cauliflower snakes, the big ones were indeed more than 2 meters, according to you, I have seen the largest snake! As for what you said about it being the king of snakes, or the first time you heard about it, I didn't quite believe it. I thought the python was supposed to be much bigger than it, but I had only seen it in books, never seen it!
I don't see poisonous snakes in my hometown, and many of them are yellow, black, green, red, and white. Black and yellow are the two most common and are larger. The biggest I've ever seen is as thick as an adult's arm, more than two meters. The black one is seven inches up is thinner, seven inches down is particularly thick, the body length will not be too long, I have not seen more than two meters. There are also black, the body is super long, but generally not as thick as the former, I have seen three or four-year-old children with arms as thick, nearly two meters and five meters. Yellow is common and the body is well-proportioned. Body length of two meters is common, the largest plate I have ever seen up, rural cooking with a large iron pot just put down. The diameter of the pot is 60--70cm. The green-and-white snake is the most numerous, but it is not very long, and it is common to be about one meter. Red is rarely red and gray, and the body length has never been too large. White was rare before, I've only seen it twice, slightly larger than the blue-and-white snake. This is my hometown, Damei Qinglong!
Cauliflower snake on our side will not fight it and will not catch it, more believe that it is the embodiment of the old ancestor to go home to see the descendants, many times will appear at home waiting for it to go ~ of course, because it is not poisonous, you do not provoke it, it will not provoke you ~ and we have a saying that the killing of the cauliflower snake will be a disaster!
In our hometown, there are usually one or two families in each village with a cauliflower snake. Our side said that it was a domestic snake, and it could not be chased or beaten, and the snake would not bite the family, and they were all at peace. And the families with snakes in the family are generally more prominent.
