Thanks guys. Yep, they're wicked-lookin' critters alright. They are actually quite inoffensive.

SapphireMoon: Is it a hybrid? No, this is <html><i>Elaphe (Pseudelaphe) flavirufa flavirufa </i></html>, from Central America.
These snakes seem to be almost strictly nocturnal in my experience, hence the gigantic eyes. They also show strong arboreal tendencies, and have correspondingly long and prehensile tails.

Cheers!

Here's another pic...this two-year-old male seems to have exceptionally crisp colouration...


Jen; I've got my fingers crossed for the '05 season...
