Is this a bad one or a good one?

I've had a few myself, years ago. I had a Rock Python that was 6 1/2 feet long ( I babysat for about a year) along with a Burmese that was around 6 1/2 feet long (also babysat for same guy) & then my Little 4 foot Ball Python which I had for 5 years. I was never so happy to see that guy get home from Boot camp & then they sent him to Germany for 9 months, I was like :rolleyes: ??

I used to be scared to DEATH of snakes while growing up, & my Dad would always say :If you fear it, then you need to learn to understand it, in order to break that fear, because fear is lack of understanding something: When he found out I bought a snake, he said, "I didn't quite mean it like that" :lol:

I would not have killed it, But I have a fair amount of knowledge about them, even that said I get spooked when I stubble up on any snake the way you did. I understand not everyone does though. At first glance I thought cotton mouth.
 
Only reason I do not object to killing it, is because copperheads can KILL you! Snakes do not bother me, but venomous ones scare me.
 
yeah, don't downplay the bite of the copperhead just because it's rarely deadly...they're still said to be extremely painful for a long time

you won't die from a semi backing over both of your legs, but that doesn't mean you wouldn't sweat it if it happened

Perhaps I am mistaken who knows. Any snake in the water to me is probably a copper and I would in no way get near one.

I guess you haven't seen a Water Moccasin before. I have had one fall out of a tree into the boat floatin the eleven point river.
