[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3592803, member: 26737"] Also, they're mean. My experience with them has been that they're more likely than most snakes to go on the offensive. The one I converted into a matched set of 18" and 6" copperheads made that mistake once. Also, after it struck at me (yes, a fat old man can jump about six feet backwards off his back foot when necessary), it made the mistake of heading toward the house instead of away from it. The two pygmy rattlers I killed, on the other hand, only bought it because my Bark Bark of Remarkably Few Brains wouldn't leave them alone. One couldn't find its way off the back deck, and the other couldn't figure out how to turn tail and run, so we played a game of catch; the former caught a .22LR and the latter caught a pair of lineman's pliers. It was a shame, as they were both beautiful snakes with some brilliant purple coloring in their pattern, but the Bark Bark of Remarkably Few Brains is far more important to me. [/QUOTE]
