It is rather tiny and the tigers went after it immediately. They were so wild they grabbed the snake and carried it away when I noticed and wanted to take a photo.
I wonder why the fellow came into the house, I thought a wolf and two tigers would be deterrent enough...

Normal ist der Schlangenbestand bei mir sehr übersichtlich, ausser ein Liebhaber geht mit seinen Tieren etwas lässig um. Du müsstest dir noch einen Mungo halten
well, not a cobra, or a pit viper and doesnt have a triangular head, guess its not poisonous. might be a little phyton i guess
Interessant! Hab aber keine Ahnung davon. Lang und dünn, sieht giftig aus. ;-)
MJ Gue I don't think I have heard of pythons here, but then the only one I can remember now is the 100-step snake, so called because you can still walk about 100 steps after a bite.
Looks like a non-venomous Taiwanese Beauty Snake aka Striped Tail Rat Snake
if it has round pupils, might be a rat snake,
Ah, thanks! I've sent the fellow to the backside, to the bamboo forest. It really was a tiny one, less than a centimeter in diameter.
It may have been seeking a cool spot. Also there may be frogs or rats that it sensed and looking for food. We get all kinds of snakes in Hong Kong - big and small, venomous, poisonous and harmless. We do get Burmese pythons. They're pretty scary and are protected.
