The cauliflower snake, also known as the ring-necked snake, is a common snake in Asia. Its body is usually black, white or gray in color. There may be slight differences between subspecies and individuals, but generally speaking, their colors are mainly divided into the following categories:


1. Black: The body of most cauliflower snakes is black, with a shiny and bright appearance.


2. White: Some subspecies of cauliflower snakes may also appear white, often with black spots or stripes.


3. Gray: There are also some cauliflower snakes with gray tones on their bodies, which are slightly darker than black.


In addition, the cauliflower snake's head is usually smaller, triangular in shape, and clearly separated from the body; its neck is ring-shaped, hence the name "ring-necked snake." At the same time, the cauliflower snake also has obvious black and white annular markings on its body, and the number and size of the markings vary among different subspecies.
