Brahammy Blind snakes

candb Mar 12, 2006 11:57 AM

Today i was looking for some smaller worms for my Ringneck and found this little guy under the wood. I let him back go after taking the pictures. That is the first one i have ever seen or found.

Sorry about the poor quality.

Hey,

Nice little snake! I am doing some research experiments right now on their bioluminescent properties, because they glow all kinds of weird and pretty colors under black light, just like the Western and Texas blindsnakes of North America. I am still trying to figure out exactly why and how it works, in addition to being able to capture it on film. Nice find!
