The dominant color for the zodiac snake is red... same as the rat. So I decided to bend the rules a little bit and give this one a yellow eye and black eyeshadow. The reason for that being that there is a type of snake that has red, black, and yellow stripes on it's body. That was the first type of snake that came to my head when doing this so I went with it.

Since a lot of you seem to question the colors I chose, I'll tell you now that I had a book of the chinese zodiac (I don't remember what the name was and I no longer have the book), and the colors used for each eye are the ones the book listed as the dominant colors for each sign. I'm sorry if anyone has a problem with it,or if you have a different source of information that lists different color(s) than the ones I chose, but the colors for my eyes are staying as is.
