A green snake???
So tonight we took a walk out into the country (back up towards Hovey)and going up some stairs into a gravesite, I came across a very green, probably 2 and a half foot long snake that moved very fast under my feet. I couldnt get a pic of him, but he was probably about an inch or so in thickness and a beautiful green color, I cannot find any info on it at all! If you find anything please let me know, I will check the listing above, and search poisonous too. Thanks, :).

ETA:I checked the listing from the other snake thread and didnt find anything on this snake. Its weird, the only thing I found online was a Korean legend about a green venemous snake that is supposed to be lucky. Of course, I am more interested in the actual snake and name of it, not the spiritual aspect...lol. It was beautiful, and very thick and very green. Thanks for any help.

I jumped off the stairs because it startled me, I just wish I knew it was there so I could have gotten a pic...now the analytical side of me that you know so well is taking over and I must know what kind it was.

This is what it looked like, only bigger.



Chinese Green Snake (Cyclophiops major)

but it doesnt sound like it is down this far south. and these are thin snakes, this one was like an adult rat snake or a black snake, thick.
