Hi

I just got home from Hamm and bought a couple of these beutifull snakes. Anybody have any clue as to what species they belong to? The were sold to me as Housesnakes (Hausschlangen), but they don't look at all like Lamprophis fuliginosus.

If it's not fuliginosis, it could be swazicus.

Hi Greg

Yes have thought of that myself, but can't seem to find any clear clue as to what it might be.
