Bristol NoveltyBristol Novelty AK043 Snake Large Rubber Prop, Brown

I bought this as a Prank item, but saw where some said they used in their garden to scare birds and other animals away. I left it out there all winter, just looked out there to find these photos. Seems a bird has laid eggs and built a nest out of it. This is still getting 5 stars as it looks great for the prank reason I bought it but I wouldn't use it for garden purpose, unless you are trying to terrify human garden theifs.

This snake is awesome! Very realistic. Very lightweight. It's lighter than it looks, however it might be too bulky for a child or elderly person to carry around. It does bend but goes right back to it's original shape. It can easily drape around someone a few different ways for a costume prop. I bought it for part of a Halloween costume. I originally intended to try to weave wire through it to make it a skeleton so it would be more poseable. I found that wasn't necessary. It wraps around you very realistically.

Very realistic and scary as heck! It was a great birthday gift for my brother to use under the carport to keep the birds from making nest. However, the summer heat was not kind to the fellow. He fell apart. So, it was great, but not really for outdoors.

Arrived looking exactly as pictured. Built well, should last a very long time if not abused. What I found surprising is that this snake is light. You see it's made of a hollow rubbery layer that's filled with some kind of stuffing. Think plushie with rubber skin :)I expected solid rubber but what arrived was a better snake than a solid one would have been in my opinion.

This item was used in a haunted house on Halloween night. I have done this for the community for the past 2 years. It was an awesome addition to the Halloween decorations.

I thought being made of rubber, it would be more pliable or poseable, it is not. It is not suitable to wear around your neck for a costume because it is heavy and will not drape or hang (too Stiff) which makes it very uncomfortable and it sticks straight out. Seller allows a return but I will not return as the cost of postage is more than the cost of the item. (Seller does not pay return postage).

Best thing bought from amazon. Used in a prank or two. Lol. A real hit. Thank you!

The snake feels and look real other than the head. I cut the overly large tongue off that hangs out and colored in the eyes black. looks much more realistic. I put this in a cooler attached to a string that lifts it as you open cooler. It makes everyone SCREAM!
