We didn't seem to think so either... we couldn't decide if it was (key word WAS) a Brown snake or Pine snake... it was found in our neighbors yard under leaves which would be par for a Brown snake.
It's a pine snake.
to bad it's dead
Definitely not a copperhead.
Hank, that why i said.

Yeah we were thinking the same thing because we have a terrible mole problem. We could have sent them our ground bees and kept the snake.
Thank you that is exactly what it was....
Now we know!
Pssst...the first snake is a rat snake. The second snake is a pine snake.
Second pic is a juvenile Rat Snake.
