Species ID: solid green "ribbon snake"

Ok. Correction, using Stefan's input.

Gertie, that just means we havent figured out the (probably) easy modifications needed for them to thrive in captivity, best accomplished using a "Study and replicate" method.

green snakes are awesome... but as everyone else here has said... they seldom make it in captivity. To get that snake to eat, they NEED to put it into its OWN cage, with a good amount of space and HEAVY vegetation. It should not matter as much if the cage is tall or long as long as there is heavy, heavy vegetation and stuff to climb and hide in. You also would want to mist inside once or twice a day because many arboreal snakes drink dew droplets off of leaves or drink droplets when it rains... I found green snakes do not take to water dishes like other snakes will. if its the only source of water they will make do, but it's not a good idea to force snakes to make do.
