Very nice. Love copperheads. My very first hots were a pair of southerns. I was advised by many people that they were a good choice for a first hot. And on some level I guess it was true. They have relatively mild venom. But I've always found most agkistrodon's to be very jumpy nervous snakes that can be a real handful if you catch them on a bad day. And my pair seemed to have more bad days then good lol.
