thanks for checking them out :)

Carpets get a little too big for my liking. I like BPs a lot, but maybe when he move into the new house I can have enough room for a Carpet! They are pretty awesome looking, never seen one in person though. I'd have to do a LOT of research before I decided though.

Luckily sarah, there isn't too much research required for carpet python care :D I find they're generally even less prone to problems and difficulties than BPs (with the exception of Diamonds).

Irian Jaya carpet pythons are a small subspecies that will stay smaller in weight than big female BPs in general as well, so you don't even HAVE to deal with the (wonderful) big carpet pythons you see pictures of. I personally love the biggest ones the most :D

Add me to the list. I just received my first carpet python today as a rescue. I have always kinda liked them, but I am hooked now. This one is full grown from what I can tell and very healthy with no mites at all. I have it in a quarantine tank for now but after it settles in a bit I will get it out and sex it and take some photos for here..

I just love carpets, and they have been on my wishlist for sooo long...and last night, I got a juvenile female IJ! :banana: :gj: She's AWESOME. Can't wait until I can start handling her!

Anybody still having doubts?!

Btw if the size scares you off..
Start with a baby and it'll litterly grow on you..
It takes about 4 to 5 years till they are pretty much full grown..

I've got a carpet and love him!

Just a baby (75% Coastal, 25% Jungle)

These are really old pictures he is much bigger now (was 40 grams in the pictures and now is 140 grams)

I'm now up to 6 Carpets, and I love each and every one of them. They all have a unique personality, and each bring something new to the table. I have 2 Jags ( 0.1 Pure Coastal, and 0.1 75% Irian Jaya), 1.2 Pure Jungle Carpet Pythons, and 1.0 Pure Caramel Coastal Carpet Python.
