Boomslang hatchlings measure 29 – 38 cm in length and are largely grey to brown with a large emerald eye (See photographs 1 – 3). They may have quite a bit of yellow in the lower neck region as well blue markings between the neck scales, that are more visible once the snake inflates the neck. The eye is bright emerald green initially, but soon fades with age.
