Identification help!
I find these all the time at the apartment community where I work. Thought maybe they are copperheads, but not 100 percent sure. Any help?

Re: Identification help!
Any time its something from the east it ends up being a dekay brown snake. LOL. I'd never even heard of them until this forum but it seems like they're everywhere.

Re: Identification help!
The thing that gets me though, if you suspected they were copperheads.. Why is it in your bare hand?
