Thats right they are coming out. My hubby found this guy under some wood. He was movining the wood to a pile. It is only a copperhead. Good thing is he saw this litle guy before he seen him. Yes it would have been an ER trip if he had been bit. No we did not kill him we set himm free into the woods. That would have been mean to do that. We love all kinds of animals and creatures. Do you?

I am not a friend of the snake. I would have ran to the house screaming for my husband.

We don't have any venomous snakes here. I'm right above the Eastern Continental Divide, and venomous snakes don't live on the northern side, only the southern side. 20 miles from here the area is saturated with Timber Rattlers. It's kind of amazing that your husband was able to catch the copperhead and release it safely.

@Jdaw1985 Yep, all the snakes that used to bite me when I was a child didn't do much to hurt me. :D

Only a copperhead. Those are poisonous snakes and are dangerous. They are not to be played with. I saw lots of rattlers as a kid and I know enough to stay clear of them.

@Jdaw1985 I realize that. I guess I was over cautious. When I was a kid, we had snake bite kits and we knew how to use them. Thank God, we never had to, but we had some close calls.

I just photos of my friend on FB. Posted a photo of a snake he caught. It is a yellow snake. The only difference is -- he killed it. Good job to you for setting it free into the woods

My step-father used to gave me snakes when I was little. I have heard of a new story that a Lowe's employee was bit by one that was in a tree.

My biggest fear is of snakes, so my hubby has to kill them when I see one, otherwise I won't go outside. We only see about one per year, sorry, but we cannot catch and release.

The only reason my hubby grabbed him up was so that he did not bite him. He seen him first so he wanted to remove him from the area we have children that fear nothing if you know what I mean.
