Taiwanese Beauty Snake | 台北市立動物園資訊網

As their name suggests Taiwanese Beauty Snake’s really are beautiful to look at. They are slim bodied snakes which can exceed lengths of six to ten feet depending on sub species and sex, with males being smaller than the females.

Both sexes are bright yellow in body with a black line running along their back and large speckled black blotches along their sides. These are a very active and alert species and can live 12 years+. Both babies and adults can be snappy so ideally we don’t recommend this species for beginners.
