I hated killing this beautiful black snake today, but it was in the chicken coup, had already killed a duck and was looking for a smaller chicken. I don't usually kill non-poisonous snakes, but if I would have simply tossed this one back in the woods, it would have come back that night and wiped out all of my chickens. A bummer on two counts (the chicken and the snake). This snake did encourage us to "Ft. Knox" our coup, however.........
