That's a keeper.

Rare to see so much dark orange like that. It does not photo well, but that is one handsome little snake.

Looks to be a yearling and looks to be male.

Nice, do you have a pretty girl picked out for him when he is ready. I wish we could take snakes from the wild here some of the species i have seen in the bush here have blown my mind.

He passed away in his cage for unknown reasons...

Such a shame too, that was some great colouration.
