The Pattern: The Easiest Identifier. The true calling card of a copperhead is the coloration on its tubular flesh. As the name of the species implies, the head of the snake is always going to have a prominent copper hue. The base color of the rest of the snake is going to range from tan to pink. The key to differentiating a copperhead from other snakes is found in the reptileâs pattern that rest on its tan to pink body.
