Red Tail Green Rat Snakes are stunning arboreal snakes known for their brilliant emerald-green coloration, slender bodies, and distinctive reddish-brown tails. Gonyosoma oxycephalum, also commonly called the Red-Tailed Green Ratsnake, is native to tropical forests throughout Southeast Asia. These impressive snakes typically reach approximately 5–7 feet in length, with some individuals growing even larger. Their vibrant coloration and elegant appearance make them one of the most visually striking arboreal rat snakes available in the reptile hobby.

Red Tail Green Rat Snakes are active, primarily diurnal snakes that spend much of their time climbing through branches and vegetation. They require a spacious, vertically oriented enclosure with sturdy climbing branches, elevated resting areas, hiding places, and plenty of foliage. Warm tropical temperatures, moderate to high humidity, proper ventilation, and access to fresh water are important for maintaining their health. These snakes are carnivorous and generally feed on appropriately sized rodents. Although beautiful display animals, they can be defensive and quick-moving, making them better suited for experienced reptile keepers.
