Every time someone posts something like that, I add it to my mental list of "must look at during the next show I go to"!

They'll top out around 7-9ft, though nowhere near as hefty as burms. Baby carpets can always be a bit snippy but after they get a bit bigger they're really nice snakes.
I like them because they are semi arboreal and are out most of the day. You'll find mine hanging around on their perches 95% of the time. They require no real complicated husbandry, since they are from the Alice Springs area of Australia (arid and hot!)

Sweet picts tho guys :gj:
I don't know that I've heard them say that, but then I haven't paid much attention. They are different than your typical carpets, hence why they are Morelia bredli and not part of Morelia spilota. It's still a toss up depending on who you talk to. My "Keeping and Breeding Australian Pythons" book still has them as M. spilota subspecies. Others only use the M. bredli. :)
