no king cobras in Africa and a king cobra is bigger than that.

LordKushmann:


My thoughts too but it does look like a King Cobra.. They should know because it'd reared its hood on them before being attacked to death. We can't see the hood now it's dead and those little striped ones might be the babies who are yet to attain full pigmentation.

Tayomi37 This is Boa not Cobra. Cobra is pure black while Boa is brown with black lining as seen moreover Boa is Oviviparous( IE hatch it's baby from inside while cobra is not. From the pic cobra is not as big as the snake in the pic


It's not even Boa, because boa lays eggs as well. Cobras lay eggs. Pythons lay eggs. The snake is a Viper. Viper is the only snake that gives birth to a young directly.

That is not anywhere close to a Python. Neither that is a cobra. That’s a Ringhal snake. Has almost similar look to a cobra, but not a cobra

You just boldly wrote pure nonsense. That’s simply a Ringhal snake. Has almost similar look to a cobra. They are amongst the snakes family that are “viviparous”

Osanoghodua1 post=110276848]Not all Snake give birth, that snake would have to die to give birth to these children.



That certain snakes die to give birth is a fable. Not true. The give birth like other animals. The offsprings crawl away immediately there born. The mother snake lives to conceive again.

Anaconda is a Boa, but not all boas are anaconda.

I'm may be wrong but the below is a list of snakes that give live birth so you can pick the most obvious candidate. I will defer to your expertise

Whatever snake you think it is. But are you saying Vipers don't give birth directly to a young? Learn to be polite when addressing people. Your harsh response to my post suggests you're a proud man. You know very well that pride is not a virtue.

after laying eggs for some days inside hidden Bush when its getting close to hatch time, the snake will now swallow all the eggs back so those babies will hatch out into ther mother stomach as soon as they mature they will be eating every organ inside their mother and finally work out and leave their mother dead
This is false abeg
Do your research well

There are no boas in Nigeria. If there were, the last time you would have seen one killed is not in the 90s. The only constrictor we have here is our African Rock Python. That is a viper.

That's why it's not good to argue blindly. I am just hearing about snakes giving birth like mammals for the first time on Nairaland.

I will confirm it later on google sha, the thing still dey surprise me.

Yea I watched it on Nat Geo wild and I physically saw these constrictors giving birth alive to life baby snakes �...since that day I believed not all snakes lay eggs
