Malaysian Snakes


The Aussie python is making news in Brisbane.

In the tropics, there are snakes every where. When I was little, Dad used a net across the stream at the back of our house in Buloh, in stead of trapping fish, we trapped snakes instead.

I was a very brave girl then, I helped Mum to chop the snakes into inch long sections and fed them to our chicken and ducks. The snakes had eggs inside their entire length of the body. I was thinking if the eggs hatched, there would be so many snakes to come to eat my chicks and ducklings.
