Hi

One of my girlfriend just brought this around, she said she found it in her house.

I have no idea what it is but know one of you more experienced people would.:? :?

We are in NSW and I have added a 5 cent so you can see how tiny it is.

Also I was wondering if this was in her house could the rest of the clutch be under the house or something.:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: She is a bit worried and chcking all shoes before putting her foot in.

Thanks guy's in advance

[hornet]

yup, blind snake, so cute

blood worm, hahaha

 

[MrBredli]

It's a Blind Snake; completely harmless. There won't be anymore in the house, they live underground and it is nothing short of amazing that one was found actually inside of a house.

definately a blind snake, had a quick look in a book looks like it might be Ramphotyphlops Broomi or faint striped blind snake but im not too sure.

She does.

He is a cutie and could be mistaken for a worm

She should be fine about it now as they are harmless only eating stuff like Ant larvae.

isn't it an exotic?

 

[nuthn2do]

If your girlfriend owns the house maybe she should have it checked for termites.
Both love the dark and blind snakes love termites.

 

[salebrosus]

You beat me to the termite comment nuthn2do, this pic is not very good of me with one but none the less a pic. I love blindsnakes they are gorgeous creatures.

Junglemad,I don't think they are exotic as they can be kept on a licence in NSW.
