My Jungle Carpet just tagged me.
I thought this would be the best way to introduce my newest addition. He has always been the definite "jumpy" quick-reaction to everything you do type Carpet. I don't care it he just bit me for the first time though.. He's friggin awesome. And really cool looking at the same time :) Let me know what ya'll think!
Got him from the East Bay Vivarium in Berkeley, Ca. Such a great reptile shop.

This was all right after he decided to take my hand into his jaw cavity.. such a lovely young buck... Well, I've only had him like a month and a half and they said he was a late 2009, so he's quite a big boy already. I have to say though that this was the biggest bite I have taken yet. Yaya, Not bad at all, Promise!

By the way lovely snake enjoy!:
