The python was captured at 8am from a house in Pathum Thani’s Klong Luang district.
Amnart Saengsaswang, 47, an official of the Na Phra Lan emergency radio centre, said he was alerted about the python at 3am but when he came to check the house, he could not find it.
He came back later in the morning and found the snake in a hen pen.
The python would be released into the wild, Amnart said.
