Another sign of unpolluted environment



Almost every month or two, we catch python snakes in our farm.
At first, we are very scared and to be honest, we have killed two or three of them.
Then, we learned along the farming experience, that snakes are signs of improving ecosystem.
Yes, snakes are part of ecosystem. Of course they are scary but python are non-venomous snakes. Even cobra snakes shows their  presence in our farm, they are venomous, but just be out of their way and they will not attack!



What do we do to them after?... 
We set them back free in the mountain, just up hill our farm... We know that one day or another they will come back to eat chicken, but how much could a snake eat at a time? One or two.
What matters and very important to know is that these snakes are predators to rats too!

Great feeling! I know our farm and surroundings are of better place for our free-range chicken production, along with our natural farming practices and organic agriculture methods.
          

MEASURING THIS PYTHON... 3.45 METERS... HUGE ONE!



THEN WEIGHT IT...

WOW!... 10 KILOS!!!

Now, you should know if the farm is chemical infested or not. Ask what predators and insects they have or better yet, see for yourself. A real farm without anything to hide can be visited anytime :)
