Found a similar sized one in my Louisiana garage one day. Darned thing made the mistake of chasing me past the tool rack where I grabbed a shovel and went to town on him.
These cottonmouths are the only snake I've ever seen chase a person. When I first went and looked at it, I considered killing it with a rock, but was a little afraid I wouldn't be able to get out of the creek if I didn't get it on the first throw and it came after me!
Was that a 410 by chance ?
It's a youth 20 ga
Good shot
Thanks! Hard to miss with a shotgun. 🙃👍🐍
And God Bless YOu....
You too

@@FarmDad Yep - They're very territorial. They'll chase you and wrap themselves around your leg if they get the chance. Stay safe!
