WOW.

Found this on another site. Its an american snake I think, not sure, but I want one.

 

[craig.a.c]

Sulawesi Mangrove, it is. Never heard of it.

 

[craig.a.c]

Looks like a black BTS or something.

 

[basketcase]

its in the genus boiga. so unfortunately the closest youre goin to get to one of those is a brown tree

frankly i rkn night tigers look way better

and if u think that one is nice have a look around for the malayan form, it has yellow stripes along the flanks

Reminds me a little of xenopeltis ~sunbeam snake

 

[Retic]

That is beautiful, it's so glossy. There are lots of snakes that look better I suppose but it hasn't always got to be a competition

You're right Instar, very similar to a Sunbeam snake, that wonderful iridescence.

 

[instar]

i wish...sigh!

 

[Retic]

Just incredible.

 

[craig.a.c]

Beautiful colours coming off the Sunbeam snake. Very nice.

Thats "awesome"... like water python style but glossier.

Hey Inny - looks like that should be renamed to the "Exxon" Python

Youd have to have an outdoor enclosure to get the full effect of both the snakes dont you reckon?

 

[instar]

Definately Sherm, have seen pics inside, under lights etc, nowhere near it. Sun really does it!
Hatchys n neonates are blackish with lighter head patch, ugly lil suckers, surprisingly. Still glossy but..*shrugs*

Yeah Alex, looks like an oil spill eh :lol:

juvenile

 

[Gilleni]

Or an MVB

 

[Rossagon]

heres the other mangrove you mention Basket.[/img]

 

[Retic]

Yes I had one of those years ago, wild caught and never let me forget it. Beautiful looking snake but what an attitude.

Awesome snakes, really love the mangrove snake, the black and yellow looks unreal.
