spetersen Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Find a little baby snake 25 cm, just in front of the entrance of our house this evening , anyone knows what kind of spices this is , I have previously catch several Malayan Pit Vipers here but this one I’m not sure of. Let me know if you know… By the way took the snake to a safe place and released it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post worgeordie Posted May 27, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2021 Banded Kukri snake, non venomous , live on frogs , toads and lizards, called Kukri due to shape of their teeth, like a Nepalese Kukri knife. regards worgordie, 6 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Led Lolly Yellow Lolly Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 (edited) We have absolutely loads of Kukris with lateral stripes here, I nearly step on them almost daily... but I never saw a banded one like that.

Popular Post rwill Posted May 28, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 28, 2021 Don't just kill snakes randomly they are beneficial. But I do understand protecting your family and pets if needed. Kukri though not that dangerous it is best not to handle them much their teeth are razor sharp. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if venomous the time you are most likely to be bitten is in attacking it. If not in a place that is an immediate threat it will leave you alone if you do likewise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jak2002003 Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 The snake is nice pattern...good looking snake. Love seeing many different snakes, lizards and turtles here in Thailand. We don't get that variety in the UK. I have always had pet snakes too...at the moment have corn and king snakes. Also had ball pythons in the past.
