My precious beauty snake!

This is one of my Elaphe frenata; the rarest and prettiest beauty.

In Western world, many people called them "Rein Snake", but in their origin, we called them "Green Beauty Snake".

It is easy to understood why Chinese think they are a kind of beauty snake as they also have black stroke beside their eyes.

The distribution of them is wide as discribed on serveral literatures, but the numbers of them in the wild is small.



Enjoy the picture!

I'm afraid of looking at any posts of yours. The snakes are just too beautiful to bear looking at!

Very nice Angus. I had the chance to get some about a year back, and passed. I had not realized that they were as rare as they are. Oh well, next time maybe.

Beautiful animal! LOL... with the collection you've shown us, I think I would be terribly dissapointed if it were not!

Hey! Ryan.
You should take them when you have a chance; even in Hong Kong, I have a hard time to get them. Don't miss again!

Ron,
I will show you around if you come here, but you have to bring me to that boat again!

Simon,
I am sure you won't be disappointed, I have things ready for you!
You site looks great!

Katt, Vanan, clownfishie,
Thank you, Thank you!!!

Linds,
After your words, I don't think I can post my ugly snake out then....
