What happens if a corn snake accidentally swallows a wood chip?
It should be fine. Over the twenty-five plus years I've been keeping reptiles, I've seen quite a few wood chips disappear down the throat of snakes while they've been stuck to a mouse or rat. None suffered any ill-effects.
Without a better description - it sounds like a Ribbon snake. See if the picture in the related link matches.

Who knows more about copperhead snakes in Vermont?
They are quite shy and their patterns make them very cryptic so finding them can be quite difficult when looking. I know they are an endangered species in all of the new England states which many paid a bounty for killing one or the other venomous snake found here, the Timber Rattlesnake.
Similar to the Timber Rattlesnake, the copperhead is a denning animal that returns every winter to a typical communal site below the frost line. This is usually a rock crevice at the toe of a talus slope with a southern exposure. Copperheads return to the surface when the warm weather stirs their slowed metabolism. In Massachusetts I have seen copperheads denning in man-made materials such as concrete slabs or deeper excavations that have some sort of cover to diminish the frost.
Since habitat destruction and lack of understanding have resulted in huge drops in the populations, both of these pit vipers should be protected fully in the New England area.
Why do people kill snakes for there skin just so you can have bags and stuff?
