Re: My new Bredli
She looks lovely, my bredli had no issues switching to rats. He ate it the second i offered it. Hope it works out for you too.

Re: My new Bredli
Wow it has been a while since I have been on. Evlyn is still a eating machine. She shed not to long ago and is just above 3700g's. I think that is around 7 pounds in English.
I went to Daytona for the Breeders Expo. The wife almost got a Bp. She really liked a candino. I wish I would of had cash to just get it because she changed her mind. But that opened to door that I can get another snake so I am looking at anxethistic jags. I want a jungle but most seem to be coastals. With my luck if I got a coastal it would reach 12 feet and would be the last snake! Lol.
I found a website to print back grounds and replaced the sides of evelyn's tank from where the baby tore it off.

Re: My new Bredli
She looks awesome!! It's crazy to see how much she has grown. Good job :) I like the sides of the enclosure also. I'm sure it looks hommie for her haha. I'm pretty sure my next Morelia will be a Bredli. The more I see them the more I love them.

A 12 foot coastal is extremely rare. Your Bredli is only eclipsed in size by the coastals at the southern end of the range. Brisbane coastals are typically the biggest of the carpets. Bredli are certainly up there in size or can be. But they are average like most other carpets.
My coastal is 6.5 feet long and nowhere near the weight of your girl.
Jungles are very easy to find. Nick Mutton, Ed Lilley, Justin Julander and a host of other breeders have pure jungles.
However, Jungles and Coastals share the exact DNA according to the book THE COMPLETE CARPET PYTHON.
This is a 6.5 foot coastal that looks very jungle. She's my mutt. I'm sure there are endless combination possibilities in her makeup.
You, and practically everybody else would have no issues handling this snake.

Remember the giants are very rare.
Your snake is absolutely gorgeous BTW and I've been tossing around the thought of a Bredli or a Brisbane Coastal for my next go.

Re: My new Bredli
I am not as familiar with the Brisbane coastals and I am also bias, you need a Bredli!
It would still be my luck to get the "rare one". Bahhaaa
p.s. Nick has 2 males......

I saw some adult bredli's at the Breeders expo and they were asking 4-600 for each, 1 male and 1 female. I don't remember the exact amount but I did a double take when I saw that and could not believe it.

Oh trust me,,, I'm tossing things around, but I'm actually looking for some size. If I can't get it in carpets, I'm already inquiring about scrubs. I would love a 9-11 foot carpet python. I was hoping my girl who is from a 10 foot mother would be close. She is a terrible eater and I think she's pretty topped out.
There is a Bredli at our local reptile shop that is VERY interactive. He is almost cobra like in his movements.
I can see why you have a bias.
Why not grab another Bredli??
You scored big with your first!!

You need an Olive Python! I read that they are gentle giants. I would not mind and do want another bredli but I have a list of a few others that I would like to have before I get another of something that I already have since it is hard to persuade the wife to go along with "another snake".

I've looked into them too.
I really have a love for semi arboreal snake. Boa constrictors fed the proper way are great, carpets are even better and the scrubs even more-so. Olives don't have a prehensile tail although they can climb. I'm not interested in completely arboreal species, I find the mix of the two is what I fancy.
I never know what I'm going too see with my boa or carpet, yet even with perches, 99.9% of the time our royal is on the ground in her hide.
I'll take the first two any day!
So my list is Brisbane coastal,Suriname BC, a scrubby or an SD retic.
AND,,,, Bredli is probably #2 or 3 on that list. I love the carpets.
