Generalchaos Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 I was cooking today with the kitchen window open looking out between the rows of Lam Yai. I noticed one of the rows looked to be blocked by what at first looked like a log. As I was thinking, "Which idiot stuck a log across the pathway like that" The "Log" began to move! Not kidding this thing was almost 4 metres long, (I know the distance between the trees and this things head disappeared in one row before the tail came out of the other row) It must have been as fat as a mans leg. Real slow mover too, and didn't rush. I looked up some snakes from Thailand and the shape looked like a python, and given its size I think that is what it must be, however, it had a really dull looking grey skin with almost dull red spots on it, not shiny at all and didn't quite fit the pics online, nearest was possibly the Burmese python. We have loads of rat snakes and cobras, so I can identify most of them, but this thing was in a class of its own. I went looking to see if I could get a closer look but it had hidden itself well so no joy there. Was quite surprised to see this thing out in the open and so close to the house. Gave me the shits!

slipperylobster Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) It is wasn't a Rat Snake then it could of been a Fat Snake. Moving slow? Was the dog still barking? Was it a big dog? Edited June 6, 2016 by slipperylobster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedghog Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Sounds like a python. If it was approaching sloughing time,the skin would be dull,possible grey tinge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
