That's a long lot of skin A zilion small plates glued together to form a snake. Who would have thought of such a design?<br />
Another snap of the rat snake, showing a lengthy collection of the snake, without even seeing its head or teail. Reaching up to 3 meters it made up for a crowded cozy space. <br />

The beauty rat snake is a species of long, slender, semi-arboreal snakes that are native to Asia. Several subspecies are recognized. Their average length is about 5-7 feet, with an unofficial record of slightly under 10 feet. In captivity some calm down to be nice pets, but others have been known to be quite temperamental even many years after capture.
