Watch your fingers raking and stacking logs. I only found half of this one.
Copper headed rattle moccasin!
Purple guns kill to ya know... lol used moms birthday present to do the job.
The copperhead I mentioned in the other thread was sent to meet his dear and fluffy lord by Mr. Benelli (I shot him with the .22, but the 12ga finished him). I don't know how long he was before he became two snakes, but the longer part was a good 18 inches long, and the separation was an inch or two behind his head.
I was always catching snakes and when i was about 12 I brought one into deer camp and asked the old guys what kind it was.
I had it wrapped around a stick about 2 foot long ..I had carried it a good 300 yards back to camp on that stick.
Old dudes jumped up from their chairs and started freaking out!
Like they never seen a snake on a stick before.
Yea it was a copper head.
AAAHHH I thought it was funny watching them dance.
I really did not know my snakes yet.
I knew King and rattle snake and cotton mouth never seen a copper head until that day.

Those are the exact words I was going to type as I looked at that snake. Then I read your post.
Technically I am okay with non poisonous but copper heads meet copper jacket shortly after we are introduced to each other.
Glad ya didn't get too close.
I've been messin with snakes for about 50 years now.. I was outside one day and Marilynn the neighbor comes running up and says there's a snake under the girls bed, I laughed as she said please come get it.. I went and under the girls bed was a rat snake of 4-5ft reached I grabbed it and brought it out.. It then latched on to my arm.. She said with eyes as big as pie plates, it's biting you and I said I know.. I moved 1 foot and she was out the door.. I took it home and released it..
