Ringneck snakes question

Question

I'm just curious are they venomous or non venomous?

Answer 1

Non-venomous

Answer 2

They have rear teeth that are used to push saliva into their prey, but their saliva is believed to posess some mild venomous-like qualities that can occasionally cause some sort of allergic reaction to sensative individuals.

But they're rarely ever inclined to bite, and if they do bite a human its very unlikely that they'll use those rear teeth.

They also excrete a foul smelling musk if they're nervous (non-venomous).

Hope this helped!

Answer 3

They are rear fanged and their saliva is considered mildly toxic, but it isn't a true venom. It is harmless to humans. Hognoses fall into the exact same category.
