They are called House Snakes because they are often found in or near human dwellings, feeding on rodents (rats and mice) and small lizards. However, they are generally found in scrubland, woodland, savannah, and mountain regions.
Female Brown House Snakes lay 8-12 eggs that hatch after around two months of incubation. Hatchlings, called snakelets, are about 20 centimetres (8 inches) long.
