Yes siirrr.
It was years ago when I was a kid and we were camping up in the Pocono Mountains....damned thing jumped out at me as I was picking up a rock.Geez how did that happen ? What was the recovery like ?

The copperhead's venom is not among the most potent of the vipers but I was sent to the hospital where I spent a few weeks and even had a visit from a reptile guy from the Philadelphia Zoo.
I have never kept any exotic snakes,only the little ones that we used to find in backyards.I find snakes to be pretty boring as pets but if I were to get an exotic it would be an Emerald tree python or boa.I get the both of them mixed up but I love the way that they coil themselve on a tree branch.I used to keep boa's and pythons when i was a kid, got bit in the face and hands a few times but for some reason as i got older i developed a fear of them.
Wow a few weeks ? Why so long is that the normal time frame ?did it leave permanent damage ?

The bite did a bit of damage to my hand and required surgery....big snake,small hand lol.
Interesting how you've developed a fear of snakes as you got older.I was into different pets when I was younger too and I like certain types of lizards but the wife is terrified of all of them so I'm in no real rush to have any right now.Yeah i was just into all sorts of stuff snakes, lizards, fish, birds blah blah.
Son wants a snake and its absolutely not happening
