Zuma- Where are you located that your friend got in trouble for having a copperhead backing?

Virginia, and rattlers are a no no too, like a bunch of other states.
A lot of it has to do with the sale of wildlife and their parts.
Some snakes can be killed if in the chicken coop or your home.
Best to check your local laws as they vary and change like the weather.
There are also federal laws. Endangered species etc.

Zuma- Here in New Jersey we're allowed copperheads, prairie, and diamondback rattlers. Timbers are a no no unless you're Native American or a Farmer's Kill Permit. Other than that, not worth the risk.

Makes me like Montana even more, if it don't have legs and isn't a fish kill it! >:D

anyway back on topic, I have a buddy that has used the tan-it stuff and he said it was easy and worked excellent, I believe he used it on an elk hide.

I live in Virginia Zuma and I've talked to DGIF about taking snakes. I was told that I would just need a hunting license.
