    Well, that would be a Cerberus sp., like I said in one of the earlier threads. Also known as the Dog-faced water snake.

    There are two species of them in the Philippines, C. rynchops and C. microlepis.

    Re: finally hers some pictures for some ID

    The white spots look like either a disease or a scar. Hard to tell from those photos.

    A scar should be smooth and clean on the surface... disease should be rough, scaley (like our own skin when we have an infection, etc.)

    Also, if this is a disease process, it may change in shape or size over time.

    Might want to have a vet look at it.

    But I also have a question relating to the white spots... is this snake a mouse eater?

    The position and size of the white spots is suggestive of a mouse bite from feeding live prey...

    Water snake, KitKat. It's a fish eater and apparently it prefers slightly bigger fish.

    Any possibility that it has been rubbing its nose against something rough while it has been in captivity? Or would that look different?

    she feeds primarily on fishes i think thats an scar because she always bumps herself on the aquarium glass because shes always trying to escape
