rebo Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Our cat just brought this snake: Paddy field around Chiang Mai Length about 35 cm, diameter 10 mm Most probably a juvenile keel back, but I can't find this distinctive head pattern and the 2 parallel brown stripes on top of the back anywhere in the net. Belly orange Unfortunately I already released it back in the field, so more pics not possible. Thanks for identification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
