Holy Crap, hope she came out of that ok? Does that leave some sort of long term effects or not. We don't have hardly any poisonous ones around here.

Each and EVERY one of those pictured would die a horrible death if they were anywhere CLOSE to my proximity.
I promise they would go up in a blaze of glory for all you snake lovers.
I don't care if their presence could cure the common cold....they are NOT gonna locate around me.

Naaa....I ain't scared of them either. I will walk right up to them....to eliminate them.
My son has made some nice things out of timber rattler hides. I always give the rattler to him if we or i kill one of any size. He has a seven foot long one hanging on the barn wall.Naaa....I ain't scared of them either. I will walk right up to them....to eliminate them.

Copperheads are beautiful snakes.
Ever had one bite 'ya, bro?...if not, look at #102 again...
Sure hope she gets over it completely. They are some nasty buggers when they bite you.
No, I'm not saying they shouldn't be killed. i will kill the poisenous ones. i was just tryin to freak some of you guys out.lol and apparently it worked. I understand your hate for them after the incident with your wife. I don't blame you for killing them either cause i do. As i said i am not a snake lover, i won't kill the non poisenous ones though. I've been bit several times by non poisenous ones playing with them as a child but have been lucky so far with the pit vipers. I don't mess with them as much as we used to either, usually break out the 12 gauge on them.

And, as I said earlier...I don't kill black snakes...they supposedly keep out the poisonous ones, but never saw any black snakes last year, 1st year ever in the 25 yrs. I've lived there.
Yeah i used to see ckicken snakes or black snakes around here but they have cleared out so much land to build houses and they have seemed to disappear. Too many humans, dogs, cats, and other things to keep them away.
