Headhunter is nearly out as is everyone else apparently. It's the wrong time of the year I would guess

All you people who are having trouble finding snakeskins should come to south Alabama.  The &*(%#$% things are out and all over the place.  Bill

Bill, want to earn more than a few bucks?   :readit:  

A matched set of copperheads big enough to cover bow limbs will typically run $75-$100. Maybe more since no one seems to have any right now.

South is right!!! I was doing a 20 mile bike ride yesterday (training for my elk hunt) and picked up 2 Eastern Diamondbacks in three mile stretch that were just off the road.  Both had been hit by truck/autos and one was still alive. I went back with my truck and picked both of them up! Both were in pretty good shape! This bike riding could turn into a profitable thing!

I had a six foot chicken snake in the road when I went down to pick up the mail this morning.  I poked him with my foot and then raked him off the road before he became roadkill.  Poisionous snake are a whole different ball game.  I generally leave them alone if they aren't around the house or somewhere I am trapping.  I rarely see a copperhead or a rattlesnake, usually all I see are cotton mouth water moccisins.  Bill
