Here is a picture of a snake I got yesterday. The color on the pic is pretty true even though it was taken under artificial light. The head is slightly green, the body brownish.
The vendor didn't have an ID, just thought that it was rear fanged. I had a hunch about the genus, but now am not so certain. Immediately after purchase I dripped some water onto it, then put in a live fuzzie and covered the container. The fuzzie was gone within five minutes.
Whenever I read about someone getting a snake they aren't sure of the care I'm ready to crucify them. When I do the same thing it's intellectual curiosity or something like that. Oh, and as far as the rear fanged, I am treating it as a "hot" for right now. I don't think it's "boomslang" hot, but that it's more like Phylodryas. Still, I don't want to be proven wrong on that.
Any help appreciated. Thanks!
