one on one,

That's why I wear snake boots in these Ga. swamps. I killed a copperhead Thrusday, about 3 feet long, which is long for a copperhead.

It's in the 80's here and they are moving.

Yuck!! I hate snakes! Glad I've never had to deal with more than a 3 foot long garter snake.

you really shouldnt kill them, they keep the rat and mice population down, and they wont get you unless you mess with them. and they let you know if your too close. copperheads imitate rattlesnakes by shaking there tails in leaves. sorry for the little rant but i keep snakes as pets and people that dont like them dont realize how beneficial they really are in the wild.

Hey JW, don't let a little snake keep you from hunting the south. You just have to ignor them, more or less, just at like they're furniture and keep going. Oh, and wear snake boots.
