Good day, this Might be a strange topic but it has been bugging me for years now..
As a Kid I Use to Catch many Snakes on my Grandmothers farm in Limpopo, Thabazimbi to be exact.
And there is one snake that i found there that Im not sure should be there.. it Looked a little like a Gaboon adder. This in my mind should not be.. but as the years gone by I have spoken to many farmers and people i know that live there and they have come across some of these vipers. its stocky just like a puff adder but Far more colourful.. It had greens and yellows in it and most distinctive was the solid colour of the head. I have never seen a Puff adder that looked even remotely to like those snakes. I havnt found one in ages and have no pictures of it.. That being said I havnt gone "herp hunting" in over 10 years so they might still be there..
Any Help Identifying this Snake would be welcomed. even any kind of speculation.
In my Years of being in remote areas I have Found Many Strange Snakes.. Like in Mozambique I found a Brown House snake that was almost white. but it wasn't an albino had normal coloured eyes. So the Snake in question might have just been a variant of puff adder.. Who knows.. I Will try find one when Im that side again..
