The hefty snake’s iridescent shiny skin consisting of blue, green, yellow, pink, black and other colours has made it a centre of attraction. The colours were not the only highlight, the snake could also move around gracefully. 

The creature was termed as ‘one of the prettiest snakes’ by the official handle of the zoo. The colourful snake leaves netizens impressed and they were stunned by its ‘beauty.’ Praising it with words like ‘beautiful’ and ‘stunning’ and posting heart emojis and more, there were reactions galore for the snake.
