In Reply to: Egg-eating snakes?? posted by arasannayamu on November 04, 2002 at 17:41:21:
THE eggeating snake is the genus Dasypeltis, from Africa. They are colubrids and are not venomous (indeed, they have no teeth), so they defend themselves by mimicing vipers. The reason they're not more popular? They're too small to eat chicken eggs! However, if you're dedicated you can order quail eggs off the internet. Also, I've heard some will drink egg yolks, but I'd personally rather see them eating whole eggs.
I believe one person on the classifieds has been selling CB Dasypeltis inornata, but I forget who. Keep your eyes peeled.
