I had two pots setting at the end of our bedroom, and one morning I awoke to some unusual noise. I thought it must be a bird or a chipmunk, but I couldn't seen anything..it seemed to be coming from the plants. I set the plants out for a couple of days hoping whatever it was would leave. I then decided to return the plants inside just one at a time. Last night I heard the sound again. It was so load the cats even came running in. I still didn't see anything, but as I was carrying the pot to put it back outside, there sat a faiarly good sized green toad or frog in our hallway. My husband quickly picked it up in a paper towel and gently put it back outside. I never did get a real good look at him. Today I brought the plants back and; and hopefully he did not have any other siblings living with him. I'm not sure I could have handled a snake nearly as well.<br /><br />Have a happy day!Janice Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07795812571288753785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7981450248684029870.post-44546509553786771092012-09-26T08:55:44.223-04:002012-09-26T08:55:44.223-04:00they are so beautiful. glad that the one in the ho...they are so beautiful. glad that the one in the house was a harmless variety. we get copperheads and water mocassins here - and up by the house.TexWisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13641962051044162710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7981450248684029870.post-50805926190405251822012-09-26T08:21:48.040-04:002012-09-26T08:21:48.040-04:00How beautiful is it, the Black Rat Snake living in...How beautiful is it, the Black Rat Snake living in your house, awesome.Bob Bushellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07819577478571292055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7981450248684029870.post-28993504740367235872012-09-26T03:08:25.492-04:002012-09-26T03:08:25.492-04:00A very enjoyable Kelly.
