"Around here people try and tell me that Hogg Island Boas are venemous. I find it trying at times to explain to people who don't want to believe you... Also has anyone else heard that copperheads bread with garter snakes and now garters are deadly? If I had to guess I would assume that somebody 1/2 explained that garters are technically venemous and it just took off from there."





Copperheads are not deadly unless you are allergic, with a few exceptions. I know it will sound like i am full of it, but i was bittin by a northern copperhead when i lived in mass when i was about 11, i had stuck my hand down a hole in my back yard in search of some garters and i felt a sharp pain in my hand, and i pulled out imidetly and attached to my hand was a copperhead and i am 100% positive it was one, because i have studies snakes since i was about 6 or 7. When i reliezed what it was i pulled the snake off of my hand and droped it it went back into the hole. I was in shock and didnt kno what to do i sat there for a minute like a idiot and passed out, i woke up about three hours later and went inside to my house and told my mother and said i was fine.She thought i was lieing. I didnt seek any medical attention and i was fine the next day. In some cases i have heard of people dieing and stuff but i dont think it is very common. But i swear i was truly bittin by a copperhead.It was a very strange experience.
