I have chickens and I've had numerous rat snakes after them forever. I got to the point where I collect them and relocate them on my place far away. I hate killing things trying to survive and I moved into his home, anyway. However, a neighbor of mine who is really into wildlife said that there was some directive or something that said they are on a list or something. TPWD said they are over populated and now damaging other species and that I should be dispatching rat snakes.
Does anyone know about that for sure? I couldn't find anything from a cursory search online and I only have a handful throughout the year...Just want some clarification.
