    Another Green Snake

    Hi

    Here are two photo's of snakes .The first one is a green mamba , highly venomous but not as aggressive as it's black counterpart the black mamba.( It look a bit similar to the one Almo's send )
    The second is a " boomslang " or treesnake . One of the most venomous snakes in Africa.

    All your comments will be appreciated .
    Regards
    james

    Wow That boomslang is awesome! I am a big snake enthusiast. I really like these two images a lot, but the boomslang picture is an award winner.

    Re: Another Green Snake

    The image I took about 9 years ago.... that was 4 moves ago. Someday I will find them(me with poisonous snakes, hatchling boids and everything up to a 21 ft reticulated python)

    BTW... I bred GUYANA BOAS, bermese(albino green/ labyrinth.. triple hets too) and australian scrub pythons, green tree pythons and boas. I also had..... a monical cobra, western diamondback rattlesnake, a retired gaboon breeder($50) and a plthera of other reptiles and odd mammals.

    I sold my last 5 snakes 6 years ago because my GF told me "NO SNAKES IN MY HOUSE"
