I just have a question about pigs and rattlesnakes. I am so wanting to get a couple of pigs and we are making progress. I know how I want the shelter to be set up. And we have a good site for the pen. The only thing that I am afraid of is the rattle snakes we have out here. With the flood waters up, we have had more than I would like. We have killed a total of 6 snakes this season and each one has been at least 44 inches long and as big around as a man's forearm. Nothing to play with. I have heard that pigs kill and even eat rattle snakes, but come on, won't that at least make them really sick? And even worse when the pigs are small! So what do I do? Should I just not get pigs out here? Thanks for any advise you can give me.
