Yep .... vets around here vaccinate for snake bite. We've got too many canebrakes especially - because of the chicken houses, or so we're told.


Listen to the Snake Talk podcast episodes 37 and 83.
Specialist doctors claim the vaccines do not work, and most vets and medical doctors do not know how to properly treat venomous snake bites.

Okay, I will but ....

Google Laura Brodie. I knew her for years. She actually sold me the property I'm sitting on now about 45 years ago.

She was a local woman, friend of my aunt's .... two strong headed old ladies. Laura was a herpetologist. The first female of her field in SC. Very famous lady.

She milked venomous snakes in her basement to make vaccines and antivenom for the better part of 70 years before she died.

She swore by vaccines. She was a little ole thing, barely 100 pds, feisty. She told me she had been bitten over twenty times and that she was immune to them.

I dunno. People get their dogs vaccinated around here but I'll listen to that podcast.
