Green Mamba .... You are lucky the snake dnt spite in your eyes,...... Guys pls be careful when it comes to snake.. I've been studying snake for more than 2years, and from my experience you handle snake with caution... Whether venomous or not... Some u shape mouth snake (non venomous) can still bite and inflict injuries that can send one to grave if not properly manage ... Next time u let it go... Its harmless if u don't pose a threats.[color=#990000][/color]

I'm alive bro...If u read my 2nd post u'll realize I killed the sarpent. It'll not survive the trauma on its back thats why I killed it
How were u so sure it won't survive it? U should have taken it to a vet clinic for possible spinal surgery, since u were desirous of keeping it.
And what kind of painless death method did you administer on it?

That's not a green mamba..it's not a boomslang..it's not a vine snake..it's a bush snake. You have nothing to fear.

[/b]Until now, the only correct identification of the said snake[b]

[/b]A bush snake, non venomous...[b]

PS: Green mamba doesn't have any stupid black colouration in its mouth angry
Re: Caught A Green Snake And I Want To Keep It As Pet by planetx: 12:34am On Dec 25, 2021
Hope you know there is a shortage of anti venom in Nigerian hospitals before you keep it as a pet, and that juvenile snakes are just as venomous as the fully grown one's.

This is wrong.
There's a reason they are called Green "eastern"mamba...
Figure that out yourself..

Plus inside of their mouth is Whitish or Whitish blue.


People don't read or make simple findings anymore, even when there's google....smh

[/b]Just imagine the lots screaming Green mamba here, indeed.. Ignorance is lucid foolery[b]

I was bored and decide to stroll around the compound, there is this particular spot where snakes usually chill early hours of the day or late evening. I've never seen one but anytime I'm there, I'm always cautious and secretely wish to see snakes (I've this double feeling about snakes, I hate it but like seeing it)

Lo and behold, I saw this juvenile snake hunting for insect or so, it sense my movement and run to safety, I thought of letting it go but in few months time, it'll be all grown and pose a threat to people around.

I picked a stone and threw on it and boom I hit it spine, it motion was limited and I picked it.

Lala dont do "paedo-snake" so no need to call him

Written your will or something?
Re: Caught A Green Snake And I Want To Keep It As Pet by CryptoPornster(m): 1:51am On Dec 25, 2021
What do you mean by "I picked it” when all the pictures you shared shows the snake on the ground without your hand close to it.

Because the inside of its mouth is black.
Just so you know, black mambas aren't even black.
Black mambas are a deep grey colour. That's a green mamba though, and while it's not as venomous as its black cousin, it's dangerous nonetheless
