My guess would be an Egg Eating Snake. :P

(Dasypeltis scabra)

that was weird. i don't think that site should be something we link to here though... that is definitely adult content!!!

Good video. Egg eating snakes are one of my favorites. If I had a ready supply of quail eggs, they would definately be on my 'I want to keep' list.

Here is an old thread with a link to the same vid on a more family friendly site, along with some other info on them.

I love Dasypeltis!!

Thanks for replacing the link Daniel.

yes, thanks daniel!!!

I must have missed something;' then again, I don't have the sound on, and forwarded through the last part; but I love when they spit out the shell; their face seems to be saying "yay!"
My man's daughter once asked me if snakes laid their eggs out of their mouth, she must have seen a pic of that.

the ending was nice :)

Dasypeltis are wicked snakes the owner of my local reptile store has a pair. he feeds them quails eggs , greedy little buggers!.... watching them eat in the flesh is a sight to behold :)

Now that is cool :sunny: I know just where I can get a ready supply of quail eggs - but - shouldn't they be fertilized? Quail eggs are one of the recommended "other foods" for monitors and they're supposed to be fertilized ones.

Egg-eaters are cool! I used to have one several years back. It was the coolest thing to watch eat!!:D

What is really neat is when they rub their scales together, much like a saw - scaled viper! :eek: :carrot: :carrot:
