What am I?

[eitak]

I am thinking keelback? Any other ideas? He's been living in our swampy spa but we cleaned it out today . . I get more photos if anyone needs any


I know they aren't the best photos but didn't wanna risk touching it until I was certain what it was . .

 

[Tassie97]

either a keel back or rough scale

 

[Boidae]

Judging by the head, rough scaled, but I could be wrong.

 

[eitak]

So rough scale? So venomous? eeek

 

[Boidae]

Im not 100% sure, but yes, rough scales are venomous.

 

[snakeluvver]

Best to treat it as a rough scale, better safe then sorry.
I'm also thinking roughscale but it can be hard to tell.

You wouldn't get Rough-scalled snake in Townsville. It's a Keelback.

 

[eitak]

another shot, not that you can see much

 

[Waterrat]

Keelback.
I like the eye reflections - very artistic photo.

 

[OeduraAlex21]

Its a Keelback it looks to me

 

[eitak]

According to some websites they (rough scaled) can be found in Tully, so I assume you would get them in Townsville also? I'll just treat it as venomous . .

I just wonder if I should get a snake catcher to get it, or if i'll be safe moving it . .

As for eye reflections I took the photos on my Iphone . . So don't judge!!

I feel stupid. I should really look at the location next time...

Tully and Townsville are very different places. Not much rainforest around Townsville, is there . Roughies are not even found at Paluma.

Excellent - Thanks Waterrat!!!
