Yup, you're all right, I feel lucky this time around.
Strange, because I'm usually a Murphy's law type guy... all the time.

Wow, lucky you had gloves on. Contrary to some thoughts, a baby rattler's venom is no more potent than an adults', but they are more likely to empty everything they've got in a single bite. Also, sidewinders' venom is actually weaker than many other rattlers.
The "egg shells" you found were not from the snakes; rattlers (including sidewinders) are live born
Interesting...
Cool, got some questions. You seems to know these sidewinder rattle snakes well, what do you think was going on in my tire chock/tires..? Why were they there,,, What were those eggs shells from,,? What was the chirping the nite before...?
So, sidewinder poison isn't strong, and the little snakes don't have enough to hurt an adult badly ?
