Anyone know if baby poisonous snakes show a diamond head or does that happen as they mature? Wife came across a 6-8" brown banded snake in the flower bead over the weekend. Non aggressive and not a diamond head. I tried to capture it but he slipped under a shrub and mulch and disappeared...

nope. babies prettymuch look like adults in shape, but colors shift for some, and that sounds like a ribbon snake to me

eyes are the best way to judge if a snake is poisonous, cat eyes are bad, round pupils are good (in this part of the world)
