An extensive indoor garden where a multitude of verdant spider plants occupy the area. Despite the low level of light, courtesy of dimmed ceiling lights and thin slits of windows, the plants seem thriving and healthy. Their long, arched leaves streaked with yellow or white are prominent features in the gentle darkness. Placed decoratively, they're in a variety of rustic, unbranded terracotta pots with saucers, and hanging baskets. The background subtly features a well-stocked gardener's toolbox, essentials for plant caring like watering cans, pruners but void of any identifying marks.

An idyllic garden setting, with snake deterrent methods being in use. The scene features lush flowers and vegetables in raised beds, surrounded by a natural hued snake fence, providing a barrier between nature and the flourishing gardened area. Small ceramic figures of predatory animals, such as owls and bobcats, placed strategically around the place, are visible. Marigolds, a type of plant that naturally repels snakes, are on full display in planted pots and the ground. A flat stone pathway meanders through the garden, its edges dusted with snake repellent granules. All these elements present a serene, snake-free environment.

Display an inviting countryside backyard in the warm golden glow of the evening sunset, with a well-built chicken coop made of weathered wood and strong wire mesh in the center. The coop has an intelligent design with tight-fitting doors and no easy access points. Nearby, a faux predator, perhaps an owl or a hawk, stands guard on a post. Several healthy chickens of different breeds are safely pecking around inside the coop. Concealed in the landscape are some natural deterrents like aromatic herbs and plants.
