Snake Habits:

In summer, the snake hides in the halls, ridges or caves at the foot of the wall during the day, and goes out at night, especially at night on hot and humid days, when the activity is more frequent, and then returns to the burrow in the second half of the night until dawn. During the period of time after the sting, that is, before the sting, the snake also goes out during the day, especially before and after thundershowers.

In addition, although the krait snake is an ectothermic animal, the influence of temperature change on its activity is relatively obvious, especially the poor tolerance to low temperature. The general temperature requirement for the active period is 8 35 . At 18 to 25 the activity is relatively normal, below 8 is prone to rigidity.

The krait feeds on eels, loaches, other fish, frogs, lizards, snakes, snake eggs and rodents, especially eels and loaches. When food is abundant, the krait likes to hunt live eels.

When they are hungry, they will prey on dead eels, small frogs, small fish, miscellaneous snakes or loach fish. When the snake is severely hungry or the snake is deficient in some nutrients, there is even a phenomenon of the big snake devouring the small snake. Their foraging time is at night.
