Rattlesnakes do not actually smell like cucumbers; however, some people have reported a cucumber-like odor when a rattlesnake is distressed or feels threatened. This scent is often attributed to the specific chemicals released by the snake, which can vary among individual snakes. It's worth noting that this perception of smell is subjective and not universally experienced.

Yes, rattlesnakes do decay and cause a real stink when dead. I have held dozens and dozens of rattlesnakes as captives. Occasionally, one would die and go undetected for a day or two and, believe me, they can quickly raise a stink in the house.
