Re: Ripley's Believe It Or Not!
I saw that a while back. I think the story was that they found it on an old farm dump. Correct me if I'm wrong please. I still can't see why the snake would see lightbulbs as a source of food.

Re: Ripley's Believe It Or Not!
hahha, i imagine it ate them because they were warm? Ive heard of that happening before. Snakes eating their heat lamp bulbs, because they are warm and rat-shaped [minus the tail]
