Our local feed store was baby sitting this snake for the local animal shelter. They got a call from some unsuspecting lady that found it slinking around in her back yard. They wouldn't let us take the lid off the tank cuz she said he was really aggressive. I hope ya'll can see him well enough to help us figure out what he is. Some kind of boa or python, obviously, but he has some very colorful markings within his color pattern. The image is from my cell phone so it is not that good, so the color that you see as large yellow areas are really sort of a creamy color on the snake. There were some small irredescent patches of teal colors down his body. His eyes were sort of gold. What do ya'll think?
Thanx for your help.
Jackie
