Added "Naked" to the title to get more views. I know, cheap trick! This snake was attacked by our cat and it rolled over and played dead. Cool Blue! Five minutes later it slithered away.

I've seen them do this before. I had one come out of the rung on a ladder I was standing on, Scary! (I don't like snakes to much). When he fell to the ground it rolled over and played dead. It's scales went from jet black to a real light grey. His belly wasn't as blue as this one though. This is a young snake.
