The mount has been datamined, here is the model:
This mount will be available soon (Idk when) and is currently part of the 12 month subscription as well, so people with an active 12 month sub will get it when it goes live.

I hope it actually slithers on the ground when using ground animations and not some cloud serpent hover animation.

I’m curious to what it will look like flying, if it does fly. Every other Chinese New Year mount flies, so it’s reasonable to assume this one will as well.
Also, new mount skeleton? I don’t think we have a mount using this skeleton.

I saw something on FB, either Icyveins or Wowhead and it said it’s coming Jan 31st, but I or they could be wrong. I believe it does in fact fly, I am guessing it will look like a cloud serpent when it flies. I do hope it slithers on the ground though, otherwise, kind of dumb.

I’m so mad that only Classic gets the pet

Understandable. I think it’s weird to lock the pets to classic, and not put them in retail. I was hoping the pets would eventually rotate into the TP but I don’t believe any have yet.

Olord. I need to warn my ophidiophobic friends.
Even the people who created the lanterns for this year’s festival mads them cute and chibi-like to help out people with this issue.
Hopefully in game it won’t be bad for them!

It looks similar to the seahorse mounts.

doubtful, while they Could Use the Voldun serpent animations, its more likely that it will float a few feet off of the ground as seems to be doing in the image.

I can see players riding around on this and rubbing up against other players simulating many licks.
That is what I was thinking – looks like a reused asset (seahorse from Cata) that they really didn’t bother to add much to… It really is not that attractive of a mount…they could have done better… it won’t get me to renew for 12 months that is for sure.
I was hoping it used the G’huun (Uldir) skeleton, but I can see how it could be a modified seahorse.
Snakes. Why’d it have to be snakes?

To be honest, I’d rather have the pet over the mount, but they love their Classic only bonuses I guess.

Lol it looks to me more of a worm than a snake.
I guess they added that cobra hood to really sell the snake idea.
Year of the Rooster folks, rise up 
I think the next one is 2029 lol
