The egg snake is not poisonous. After talking about the toxicity of egg-eating snakes, let's talk about other characteristics of egg-eating snakes.

The egg-eating snake has a body structure specially adapted to eating eggs. The vertebrae in the neck of the egg-eater snake have a long and sharp ventral process, which can penetrate the back wall of the pharynx, forming 6-8 longitudinal rows of sharp serrations above the pharynx. When the egg is swallowed into the pharynx, the hard eggshell is broken with the swallowing action of the pharynx, and the eggshell is broken by the tension of the neck muscles, and the yolk and albumen are squeezed into the stomach at the same time. The remaining indigestible eggshell fragments and egg membranes are pressed into a small ball and spit out of the mouth.
