I’ve done some research into kukri snakes in the past. They got their name because their teeth reminded people of kukri knives. The teeth are designed to cut through the leathery shell of reptile eggs. They also eat frogs, toads and lizards. Some researchers wrote an article about the cool but horrifying way they eat poisonous toads. They will eat rodents, but you can feed them bird eggs as well. The eggs will need to be cracked open. The teeth are designed to slice, not puncture, so they won’t be able to open hard shelled bird eggs. As adults their bite is no joke. Even at 2 or 3 feet they can give you stitches. They can be very defensive so I’d keep them as a display snake. Snake Discovery have a few and they have a video out on how they quarantined them. DM exotics might have some info about them.
