Getting germs all over my new phone/camera.

Now I know why they call them "hots"; because your Coppers are HOT HOT HOT!

A lot of the venomous snakes are so gorgeous and demand respect, recently I've thought about one day keeping one. Won't be anytime soon, that's for sure.

I love copperheads, and yours is so beautiful! I'd love to get one someday if I knew I could keep it secure from my other pets and my husband.

Do you keep anti-venom on hand in case of a bite, or do you just never put yourself in a situation that would require it?

Yeah, I love Gaboons and Rhinos but for whatever reason, since there are so many of them that are mostly very similar, I'd rather just admire them than keep them. To me, finding outstanding Coppers is like a neverending search for the Holy Grail. They never get boring.

Thanks. No, I don't keep antivenin. It may be arrogant but I've had them for more than a decade and thoroughly understand them. No other venomous species interests me enough to NEED to keep them. I know what I'm doing. ;)
