We've seen one around here maybe a year or so ago. He had to be at least 5' long and thick as my wrist .
He was a big one but have not seen one that big since.

Biggest rattlesnake Ive seen around my area was no bigger than 2-1/2 or 3' tops . Most are usually under 2' OAL

Maybe a month or so ago , We were walking in about the same area as the one above. And a similar size diamond back was in the road . I got within maybe 3 foot or so and he could have cared less I was there . He just crossed the road and disappeared in the brush

Ive seen some black snakes good size as well. Probably over 4' on a regular basis


I'll go out of my way to leave them be . And will stop in the middle of the road to allow them to get off the road
