    Awesome pickup buddy.

    Carpet's are beautiful and inquisitive snakes. They are awesome eaters and fun to handle. Lots of fun, but they like food, and can be nippy when young (again no issues there with Yafe, although he will hiss occasionally when I go to pick him up). I encourage hook training with them.

    Two things I've learned on my "carpet ride" with Yafe.

    1. Carpet's can be sensitive to RI's.

    Yes, Yafe came with one, probably because of fedex losing his package. However, in researching and working with Yafe for a while now, Carpet's seem more prone to it than other species who like decent humidity, but not crazy humidity. There have been a few times, either because of a bad shed, or random, or me being paranoid, that I've raised his temps and humidity for a few days to ensure he doesn't get another one/have it come back. I've also read and seen other instances where people have experienced RI's in Carpet's, especially in conjunction with stress.

    2. I've heard, although Yafe had zero issues, that switching to rats from mice can be difficult. Try to do it ASAP when she is capable of taking them (I switched Yafe to rat pups when he able).



    Again, congrats and keep us in the loop!

    Thank you Dave!
    And thanks for the info!! :gj:

    Congrats brother!!! You my man, have an amazing taste in snakes. :bow:
    I've had my Bredli for almost a year (next month actually) and he's my second favorite of all my snakes.
    So if you have any questions, just shoot me a PM. I'm not an expert, but I've learn so much with my Bredli and if I can help you out I'll be happy to.

    Here's Kenny:

    LOL, I posted a picture of my son with Kenny and MR Snakes asked if I was a 10 yr old kid and I think I replied "10 and 4 months". :rofl:
