On which day did God create the snakes? On the 5th day or 6th?
On which day did God create the bats?

Day 6. In fact, God did quite a bit of creating on the 6th day.

Gen 1:24-31 NIV
Quote:
24 And God said, "Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: livestock, creatures that move along the ground, and wild animals, each according to its kind." And it was so. 25 God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good.

26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground." 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. 28 God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground."

29 Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. 30 And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground--everything that has the breath of life in it--I give every green plant for food." And it was so.

31 God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning--the sixth day.

The original Hebrew word translated "fowl" or "birds" in Gen. 1: 20 apparently refers to any creature "covered with wings." Since the serpents at that time, according to my understanding, were "covered with wings" and flew above the earth, I assume that they would have been considered among the birds. Therefore it appears to me that the serpents would probably have been created on the 5th day of creation week. The same applies to bats, for the same reason.

Hummm interesting. But bats are mammals; neither fowl or bird.

Mammals do not necessarily live on land only, there are mammals in waters too, why can't there be mammals in the air?
