I expect to get bitten so its not that bad anyway but I just love them haha might get two or three but just gotta decide haha

I find their bites feel more like cat scratches...they itch more than they hurt. My oldest carpet,Hazard, struck at any and everything when she was younger but she got out of it quick. The other two has never struck since day one of receiving them. Omega is a lil jumpy and Strife will fall asleep anywhere. You'll definitely want more than one tho...they're just amazing. Soon as I find a blk and wht one ill be happy ^_^

Awesome! I love Carpets. I took the plunge and got one a couple of weeks ago. (A Bredli) They get about 8 feet.
She is very very nippy but to be honest, it doesn't bug me. I know she will grow out of it if I keep handling her (within reason of course). Out of the 30 or so bites so far, she only broke the skin 2 or 3 times. I find it rather cute!
Make sure you show us LOTS of pictures when you get him/her. :gj:
