Most definitely a carpet python of some sort. Someone will come along that can tell you more specifics.

Hard to tell but looks like a jungle carpet to me.

Could be a coastal or a jungle, need to see the shape of the head.

I wish I had cool (non-venomous) snakes in my shed!

Re: need id for this snake in Cairns Australia

Thanks for the Id

It is in the same spot, (the cupboard is just outside my bathroom in the house, not outside in the shed) so I got some more photos.

I googled the suggestions and I found a picture that looks very similar and it said a jungle carpet python.

Re: need id for this snake in Cairns Australia

Looking at the second photo, almost definitely a jungle.

The only snakes I'm likely to find in my shed are browns.

Re: need id for this snake in Cairns Australia

It's a jungle, thanks for the id.
It probably also poops in my house but I have never seen it do anything. The other one (I've called Estia) makes a lot of noise pooping so it calls my attention and I see it.

There are several snakes that come it. I am just wanting to identify them so I know what they are. Out in the yard, which is all forest, I have seen many but most are pythons. Only one that I saw on my driveway was a red-bellied black. It was during the rainy season when the creek fills up. It attracts a lot of animals, especially reptiles, snakes and lizards.

I didn't notice your location before, lol. It is probably a Mareeba jungle python.
