Interesting. I did not know that. Our chicken coop is on the “hunting" side for the copperheads, best I can tell. We think they live in a wooded hill on the opposite side. We previously set up a trail cam by the coop and saw quite a few possum pics at night. I’ll have to talk to them about stepping up their game.Side note, if your property is lucky enough to have a healthy population of Possum, they will dispatch the copperheads for you too. They happen to be immune to the venom and absolutely enjoy snake.
