Information on "Speckled" Copperhead?
I was watching Snake Man of Appalachia on Feb. 2nd, when Verlin (the snake handler and collector) displayed a Speckled Copperhead that he had caught. Does anyone know anything about these Copperheads? I'm guessing they are local specific.

Heres a video caption with the "Speckled" Copperhead being displayed. It's about half way through the clip. I found it interesting.

Those speckled copperheads come from Kentucky, and they've been produced in captivity. However, I don't believe any have been sold to the public yet. The guy who owns them was down at the SC Repticon show about 4 years ago and had some on display. I have no no idea if he knows or is affiliated with the gentleman in the video.
