Identify my snakes!!


Question Posted Wednesday July 26 2006, 5:03 pm

Adopted two snakes yesterday, I'm told they're grass snakes,but i'm not so sure...any snake experts out there,PLEASE HELP!! One's lilac colour with some red showing through,two darker stripes from head to tail,yellow belly...the other's a greenish-yellow colour, with similar stripes...bothare about 2.5-3 feet long and slender. They have large golden eyes,with round pupils. Can't find pictures of similar snakes anywhere online. They have the same physical characteristics as common European grass snakes, but their coloration is odd...SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!! WHAT ARE THEY? DO THEY MAKE GOOD PETS? WHAT DO THEY NEED IN TERMS OF CONDITIONS/FOOD ETC? I'll upload photos for any one who thinks they can help....TA!!

If you can, take them to the pet store, where hopefully, you can find someone to identify them for you. Chances are, though, that you will get some teenager who doesnt know anymore than you. Here is my advice: If they are grass snakes, they eat goldfish. Make sure you have a water bowl in the tank and you can get feeder goldfish from the pet store. A heavy dog food crock works best for this. They will need a small heat source such as an under tank heater or a low watt light bulb placed on top of the screen lid. (60 watts depending on size of tank) My recomendation is a 20 gallon long (not high) at the minimum. Get a thermometer, temp should be around 85 or so. Get a book from the pet store. this is the most important purchase you can make. do not get a heat rock!
