Guinea fowl.
These things don't do as much as everyone claims in my experience. I have a pic somewhere of my flock of guineas staring at a rat snake and eating grass seed around it. Really what they do, along with chickens, is keep things stirred up. They are in and amongst bushes and grass and such which keeps snakes away. You just have to be ready to accept the new problem you will have which is, well, chickens and guineas. Lol. These GD things are into everything. **** on your porch. **** on your picnic table. Eating your garden. **** on your Blackstone. **** everywhere. Your days of barefoot walking outside are generally over. Hahahaha
Both myself and my daughter have been bitten on the feet by copperheads. I'm honestly not sure which I like less…chickens eating my tomatoes or the snake bite.
