Hi guys, let me start by introducing myself, my name is Mark, father of 2 kids, i am from the philippines and acity dweller.
i am also not into snakes and reptiles, but i always admire them at pet shops and tbh, i am a little afraid of them.
Today, i found a little snake in our cupboard, its green with gray and about a pinkie finger in thickness and approx 24 inches in length. (Pics attached)
I have no idea how it got into the house but i suspect it came from our mango tree outside. The cupboard was open when i saw it, and my first reaction was to close the cupboard doors, trapping it inside.
I have a lot of questions so please bare with me...
1. What kind of snake is it?
2. Is it venomous? I have a feeling its not.
3. If its not venomous, will it be a good pet? Or should i just let it go back to the wild?
4. Whats the proper way of catching it without me hurting it or it hurting me?
5. What do i feed it? (Assuming that its a good idea to keep it as a pet)
6. Ive held a python once, but it was already tame (zoo), how does a snake become used to being held by a human?
Ive got a lot more questions but ill reserve them for later. Thank you very much for your help
Edit: Oops! Seems like i cant attach the pics. How many posts do i need to be able to attach pics?
