Lizzy on the Monkey Bars

I have been looking at jungles ever since i got my two stimsons because i need a climber more playful snake but then i keep seeing that they are no good a handling only eating then I looked at coastal's but its still mixed opinions about the coastals could you plz fill me in if they are good handlers or snappy snakes thx :)

OK Reinz, I think I'm going to put the blame for this one directly on you ;). I was minding my own business waiting for the 2015 jungle clutch to hatch. Then you had to go and show off your BEAUTIFUL coastal Lizzy. For every action there's a reaction and now I've gone and purchased this caramel coastal. He's a 2014 hatchling produced by Nick Mutton at Inland reptile. Nick is a great guy to deal with and his animals are stunning. I'd recommend him to anyone interested in Morelia. He literally wrote the book on Carpet Pythons. My coastal will ship in about 6 weeks when my jungle is ready. Thanks again Reinz :P!

I know there are other good breeders out there but I think Nick Mutton is right at the top of the list. Like I said, he wrote the book on Carpet Pythons. He really is an ocean of information. All of his carpets come with extensive lineage information and are of the highest quality. I know he's got a few 2014's left and some 2015's on the way. I'm waiting for a 2015 jungle or zebra. I'd HIGHLY recommend him.

I got mine as an adult and she is mild as can be. I understand these guys are nippy when young like many constrictors, but need patience and handling.

As far as handling, they are fun, fun, fun! But don't take your eyes off of them. They move constant and with purpose. They have more reach than you think, and mine is always reaching! :)

Ziggy, he is a Stunner!! And a Nick Mutton too, can't do any better than that.

Those colors will only get brighter and better too. I can't wait to see pics of your new boy.

I bet you are just dying!

You won't regret it Josh, they're like a moderately amped up Boa. Nick Mutton is top shelf. There is a guy in my neck of the woods that well known out here and has been for many years, Mike Pennel (sp)". I'm afraid to go check him out. I know I'll end up with more!:rolleyes:

Awesome. I'm going to look into Nick. What is the morph that has the intense black and yellow striping?

Those are the jungle carpet pythons. Probably my favorite carpet. Zebras are pretty sweet too.

Yeah the Jungle is what hooked me initially. Here is a pic of John1982's, one of our moderators. This guy is gorgeous.
