Family hatches farm snake eggs in Athens home
The John J Mullins family in Athens kept about 30 snake eggs found in a Morgan County barn.

The pirate black snakes measure 15 to 16 inches, and the family plans to keep one while returning others to Morgan County to live in a natural environment. Jimmy Mullins, a seventh grader at Athens Middle School, aims to earn a Boy Scout reptile badge.
