I was wondering if anyone could give a positive id on this snake. I do not know the origins of it other than it was abandoned in a residence in Florida. Upon looking at its body structure and scalation it looks elapid. My gut says psuedonaja or psuedechis but I am not sure not having maintained any of the "Browns". The really odd thing is that it has a very faint pattern on the back of the neck sort of like a monocle.

The pictures aren't the best but hopefully you can get an idea.

And before you get ideas the black mice it's feeding on were frozen thawed and the one live one, the white one, it constricted. If it is a colubrid I have no idea what it is.

Thanks in advance

Kevin
