If you kill it you got to eat it. You know the rules ,eat what you kill,and only kill what you.
After you skin ,with some small tacks stretch it out on a 1x6 and let it dry,make sure there's no meat left on it to rot and rub so borax on it.
So, I’m reviving this thread. I killed another one and the same general area that did not have any rattles. I’m wondering if it’s a genetic thing or an evolutionary thing?
I had to zoom in on the pic from the OP because I couldn’t see any rattles. Obviously, I still couldn’t see them. That’s crazy that you’ve killed two with no rattles. I hope it’s not evolutionary because I like to at least hear it if I’m close to one. I hate that sound, but I hate the idea worse of not being able to hear them.
Model 18? Looks to me more like P235 70R16.
The second one was a 285 70 17 but they were killed 100 yards apart and six year apart. Both without rattles. I like the dang things to warn me and these can’t.
I should also note that about ten minutes before, I was standing next to my truck getting ready to walk in and check a camera. The rural mail girl rolled up and stopped. She said the rattlesnakes were really bad this year and to be extra cautious. In 20 years I e only killed 3 and 1 copperhead.
Dang beautiful snakes. Wish you would’ve just let them be. I get it that no one wants to be bit, but ain’t like a snake is looking at you for dinner.
Totally get it and agree. Probably wouldn’t kill a grown cow but a calf might die. If they had rattles, even the cattle could avoid them.
