Can snakes see through glass?

MightyPython Apr 12, 2004 11:54 AM

I was wondering this because sometimes when my BP has his face right up against the glass in front of me, I can have my face within an inch or two of him and he doesn't react at all. So I figure either that doesn't bother him, he happens to be asleep at the time, or he can't see me. Just curious about that. Thanks!

In my opinion i think they could see through glass.Sometimes when I pass by my snake and he is right in front of the tank,he flinches.He trust me but I think it happens so fast that he doesnt know what to do so thats his first reaction.But im pretty sure they could though.
