Those are not corn snakes. 100% without a doubt those are copperheads. Pretty cool to find that many in one spot. I was so focused on the big rat snake I didn't see the copperheads at first. no doubt copperheads. Cool pic! Lol corn snake.......

Yep, I only seem to see 6 snakes. As others have mentioned, one rat snake, the rest are 100% copperheads. I would have loved to find those. I want to take some photographs of some copperheads but haven't found any around my place in about 10 years.

I now see the one on the far left that is nearly brown in color. The "Two" in the middle still look like one to me, but either way, quite an interesting find.

Is the pain kiler for when they cut one of your limbs off? Due to what? The toxicity of copperhead venom is mild. Maybe a diabetic or someone with circulation problems would possibly suffer from necrosis, but even then amputation wouldn't be required.

Copperheads aren't dangerous. Worse than a bee sting, but nothing an anti-inflamatory and pain killer can't handle. I have a ton of respect for your snake knowledge, Pope1, but that is misleading, bad advice. Copperhead bites can cause significant side effects. Here is a gallery of images of a bite to the finger--> Clicky. Click on the right arrows to view the progression. This guy tells his story in the site's forum--he had side effects such as limited use of his hand for weeks. A copperhead bite should be taken seriously, even if they aren't as bad as a rattler, moccasin, etc.

Brandon, you are the man when it comes to snakes, but I beg to differ. my bite caused 36 hrs of the worst pain I have EVER felt (leg on fire kinda pain) You're right, no need for AV, White count never got high enough, BUT, I was crutches for 3 weeks, & lost 50% of the actual mass of calf muscle to atrophy. took months to get right. bit on the interior L. achilles. I've got some real cool pics, LoL!!! It's all about the bite.. kind of a [censored] shoot.

Sounds like a bad one. I am sorry it was so painful. A tendon is a bad spot to get bitten due to lack of vascular tissue. Did you step in it?
Shoot over the pics.
