Re: I just dont get it, where are they

Reptiles, including rattlesnakes come to the surface to regulate their temperature and humidity level.....If the temps are cool they will be out on the Eastern side of any outcropping, hill or mountain in the morning to catch the sun rise. Try checking the western side as the sun is setting.....After rain showers is the best time to "flip" things.

But if you flip anything other than AC (Artificial Cover) please put it back the way you found it. Too many folks that call themselves field herpers ruin natural habitat by flipping flagstone, rocks, boulders even to the point that they carry prybars and sledge hammers to do so.......
