Here's how to breed a Copper Dragon:
The Dragonvale Wiki page explains:

The Copper Dragon can be bred by selecting a metal dragon to mate with a lightning dragon at the Breeding Cave/Epic Breeding Island.

You don't need any hybrid dragons, just Metal and Lightning dragons.

You'll know you have a Copper Dragon when you get a breeding/egg time of 20 hours. Alternately you may get a Magnetic Dragon with a breeding/egg time of 4 hours.

Copper Dragon eggs look like this:

And the baby will look like this:
