Lol, once i did my research after i caught the snake. Turned out non poisonous, i think it was a puff adder? They are known for playing dead. And they also sit up like a cobra. I was worried it might hurt my goats. It was like 8 years ago in TN. I pinned it to the ground with the loppers i was carrying. Took it home and put it in a 10 gallon tank until i could figure out what it was.
