    Need Serious Help Choosing!!

    So, there are a lot of reptile expos coming up and I've decided to put off my breeding plans until I actually live in an area that allows me to breed. That means I'm going to be looking for a new pet!

    I've been tossing back and forth between a blood and a carpet for some time now (I'll eventually get both) but I've settled on getting the carpet first.

    That being said, I can't decide between Jungle, Irian Jaya, Coastal or maybe a Bredli. I've already considered the size thing and I don't find it an issue. Which do you think I should go for? This is going to be my first experience with carpets.

    They are all great snakes, it really depends on what you want. I own 2 female coastals and they are great snakes to work with.

    I chose Bredli.
    Generally they are one of the most laid-back species, which I think is great for a first time carpet keeper. And they are gorgeous!!

    Re: Need Serious Help Choosing!!

    Man for me it would be a tough Choice between a bredli and an Irian Jaya. I love both very much. I have to say though I'm in the market for a nice bredli pair myself so that was my vote.

    I think I'm starting to lean more towards the Bredlis myself now that I think about it more... still open to suggestions though.

    2 IJs here, great snakes!
    My male is a tad over 6' and my female is right around 5'. Both are pretty mellow, the male more so.
    I vote IJs.
