Yes another snake ID thread but Pretty much the title describes it found a snake in the garage shedding tonight just wondering what sort it is I live in Lismore NSW Far North Coast near Byron Bay (at a guess i would say its a diamond but im just a novice so would like a experienced opinon ) sorry bout bad pics bad camera and taking a photo was pretty much a blind shot as it was behind some poles and timber.
I may not count as I do not actually own a snake yet....however I have studied them in the bush for quite a few years. I reckon it looks like a coastal carpet(I read about them alot too)

yer ok thanks i just have a coastal carpet ( do not know what locality ) but just does not look like anything like that one dont know if its the pics or im just totally wrong but thanks I did save a little one once in some bird netting over some fruit tress next door and released in the shed as there are alot of rodents and was better pic but having alot of trouble uploading it but everyones saying its a coastal and yous have more exprerience then me so ill beileve yous
And yes is a vey nice looking snake see it nearly every single time i go into the shed curled up in a box or somwhere i see it and think hmm i wish i bought you off somone would look great in my tank (also first snake to actually see shedding) and was so amazed by how wierd they look see sort of two skins one under another but amazing none the less.
No you don't. Coastals are highly variable in all localities, and being captive stock it's likely breed from multiple generations of crossing localities.
