That's a nice one, what species is it?

Stefan-A · 10-01-2007, 03:23 AM

Loxocemus bicolor, I assume. The genus only has one species. Unless it's a Xenopeltis unicolor. Also the only species of its genus.

Honestly, I don't have a clue how to tell them apart.

Edward, it's a real beauty.

wow
what an amazing snake
but you know
you could have garters in addition
I'm sure it would work

loxocemus · 10-01-2007, 07:13 AM

its xenopeltis unicolor,a colubrid/boidy type thing from asia, these two are cb which is quite a rarity, so far thier easy to maintain.

Common names: sunbeam snake.[2]
Xenopeltis unicolor is a non-venomous sunbeam snake species found in Southeast Asia. This is a primitive snake known for its highly iridescent scales. No subspecies are currently recognized.[3]
