African Egg-Eaters are fascinating little snakes. They are able to consume eggs several times the size of their heads - the eggs are swallowed whole! They have bony projections in their spines which slice open the eggs. The contents of the eggs are eaten and the compressed shells are regurgitated in one piece.
