Posted: 13 Apr 2010 August '08 2 Adder, small Grassie and a slowie all under the same 4'x2' tin! Haven't seen the grass snake since but Adder and Slowie(s) frequently share the same space. |

Posted: 17 Apr 2010 From March 2009 at a site on Mendip where Adders and Grass Snakes are regularly seen in close proximity (though I've only seen them this close on the one occasion).  |
