What Kind Of Snake?

[junglechef]

Having lunch in my garden and this beautiful little creature stuck his head out to say hello. Can anybody identify her?

[I Like Thai]

Looks like a Copper Head Racer snake. Very aggressive, but non poisonous. Eats rats etc.

Here's a site on Thai snakes I came across the other day

I had a long green tree snake in the garden, so just had to check it out.

From the pics on this web site, looks like the "banded rat snake".

Nice pic, rat snakes are great for the environment!

following yesterdays barrage of sarcasm Mr junglechef....if i can just hiss and make up.

Very pleased to see you changing......I mean down grading your lunch venue and it seems enjoying that cheeseburger in less celubrious company,

But i hope you offered the snake some cheese..........well at least a sliver

Can anybody identify her?

Geraldine?

Going by the eye markings from the make & model suggested by the first poster, I'd also go with the copperhead racer:

[junglechef]

From the links posted it looks to me a Cooperheaded Racer too, which is a variety of rat snake. Here's a better look at the markings.

My friend in Hua Hin saw my pic and sent one of his own of a Copperheaded Racer at his place. Sharing the share

Is it edible?

[junglechef]

only if it's alive or dead

Catched this one in our kitchen. Length about 20 cm. Didn't find it neither in my snake books nor in the net. Does anybody know?

The head mask obviously disappears when the snake becomes older.

We had this one in the garden last month, cannot make a definate i.d.

Tend to checke the dangerous ones first.

This one had come off worst I can only guess with a cat....

Any ideas?
