Copperhead

[Big pig]

Default Copperhead
Spent the last couple of days in Leon county doing chores.
Spent the last 33 years hunting, clearing brush, planting, trimming, mowing there and saw my first copperhead there Friday.

I have seen a few snakes there, but this was a surprise.
I was raised around them in Harris co and hate those ill tempered little _____s!

It's been years since I've seen one. Saw a big one in Missouri probably 15 years ago. They're cool looking snakes I think. The one I saw just got away from me as quickly as possible. It was surprisingly fast is one thing I remember about it.

My buddies ranch in West Columbia is covered in them... Kill one just about every trip...

Glad we don’t have them in Coleman Cty, at least none I have ever seen in 30 yrs of hunting the area

As a kid I used to catch all kinds of snakes and knew what a water moccasin was and to stay away from them. We were visiting my aunt and uncle in Vidor and I came back to the family BBQ with a copper head and boy did it make a scene.

I used to catch copperheads as kid too. I have grown completely out of that bad habit!

I hunt in southern Limestone Co., and have been surprised that I have never seen on there. They would be perfectly camouflaged in post oak leaf litter and could really give you a scare. I have almost become complacent and assume I won't see any.

They seem to prefer wetter counties...I can assure you we got our share in Matagorda county

Killed Obe about 8 inches long on the porch last night. Usually kill 3-4 every year around the house

Got a mobile home at our place in Cisco. They live under it. Grandson and I killed 11 one night that were out eating crickets or something underneath our telephone pole mounted guard lights. Suckers were everywhere!

My dad has a place in Leon County, he kills a bunch every year

Killed one right behind my house a couple weeks back here in Navarro County. Yesterday, I was working on a property near Palestine, which my boss has owned for 6 years and we found our first copperhead in the barn. They are ill manured little jerks. Hoping I do not run into more.

We are in Normangee and kill them every year. Big ones too. This one was from a couple years ago

I’d kill 10 or so a year in Burkett.
