    Theres not really morphs, but subspecies. There is coastals, jungles, irian jayas, bredls, and diamonds. Coastal are tend to grow the largest while irian jayas stay small in the 5 foot range. But a good sized coastal can get 10' but 7-8 is more common. You want a high yellow and black carpet. So you want a jungle carpet. Thats what i have. A trophy jungle can run you anywhere from 350-800 dollars. Go to faunaclassifieds and find Steve from Sek Exotics. He has some of the best jungles in my opinion. I just got my jungle from him about a month ago and hes beautiful. Young and already got the high yellow. His username on faunaclassifieds is SEKCOBRA. Give him a shout and see what he has available. I just saw some of his third clutch last weekend at the white plains expo and there going to be some great snakes.

    when you are looking for a yellow and black one, you want to look at the parents... a lot carpets may look like they're on their way to looking great until they hit 12 months old and start getting brown smudging. if both the parents are real nice and you can pick the cleanest hatchling, they will have the best likelihood of being nice adults.
    or, if you have money and time, you can wait it out for one that's at least 2 years old, then you will really have a good idea about what you're getting. of course, they cost a lot more.....

    Go with what Colin said. Most breeders will be able to show you the parents of the offspring and it is a very good indicator of what the babies will color up like.
    Chris Behof of http://www.cbreptiles.com/ or Andrew Hare of http://www.reptilesbyah.com/rbah-cms/ have some really great jungles.
