I was lucky enough to find a rather large copperhead in my driveway tonight. The biggest one I've seen in Georgia. I hope he gets along with the two baby rat snakes I relocated from my job last year. No rodents for me!

I agree Copperheads are a sneaky ***...I collected snakes for years and handeled them....Don't ever trust a Copperhead....
That's FACT...
