Another snake - what is it?

This little creature appeared this afternoon. Only 30-40cm long so probably a young one. Best guess - Eastern small-eyed snake. Deffo not a red-bellied black.

Can't tell you what that one is, but.....my friend at work, went home from a long shift a week ago to find this first beauty lurking outside the aviary at her son's place.........so she caught it, and they released it in the bushland. She went home tonight.....and there's another one, outside HER aviary :eek:

Both 6 foot long carpet pythons! :ohmy:

:scarper:

I think I'd prefer those. If our little one was what I think it was, it is highly venomous :eek: And it has found a hole under the gravel outside our bedroom window to shelter in. :unsure:

I'll show my mate the pics when I get to work, she might be able to identify it :fingerscrossed:

I think it is a small eyed snake - had one exactly the same in the house a couple of years ago, looked it up online and small eyed snake was the best match I could see

Highly venomous if it is.
