looks like his KS ones are from Europe, that Zebra jungle is awesome looking.

I currently have 5 carpets, 4 baby jungle/coastals and one IJ.

M.Penn..:D

I just have one so far, my JCP baby boy Kipling. He's a few months old now (maybe 4 months?), and came from the East Bay Vivarium in Berkeley CA... I had a store credit to use there, and couldn't resist this handsome fella. He may not be the fanciest JCP around, but he's all mine and I love him! :)

You won't regret it... I love my little JCP, and he's one of the favorites in my collection now. :)

I now own a female Jungle Jaguar and she is awesome. I also own 6 boas. Two pastel bci, one Suriname red tail bcc, one Suriname salmon cross, one female salmon bci 100% het albino, and a male motley 100% het albino, so far.

brings a tear of joy to my eye seeing this thread still alive and well. :)

Well keep the tears rolling...Thinking about picking up a pair this year... :D:D

I had 5 or 1.4 and them 2 of them made 10 eggs resulting in 10 more :rolleye2: I've been looking to shed all of them as I like fat lazy snakes better..:rofl:
The babies are 88% IJ as the sire is a nice looking 75% IJ sib, we also have 2 jungle females from Steve Gooch and a stripey coastal female from M Penn..

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!

Hi guys, just joined after coming accross this thread.

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.

Just a few of them :-)

Allllllllll snakes are beautiful, carpets are among my visual favourite!

Here's Empress. 09 Coastal female. I've had her for almost a month now and she's quickly becoming one of my favorite snakes.

Very curious about everything. Also, very different personality than I'm used too. She's never offered to bite though and the only troubles she's given me is getting entangled in the chandeliers and trying to break into the birdcage when I turned my attention away for a second. Adds some excitement to my life lol

The breeder who had her said he only fed his snakes every three weeks to monthly. I've been feeding her weekly since I've had her(mice and rats, she's not picky) and she's already gone from 700g when to got her(April 11th) to 1000g yesterday. Has any anyone else noticed growth rates like that?

That is a champion periscoper right there... I love it when my IJ does that. It's impressive....

I sold all my ball pythons & my pet boa, so I can have more room for carpet pythons. I'll probably get a chondro or children's python. But it's gonna be carpet mostly here on out.
I sort of enjoy the fact tht the carpet market isn't as huge as the ball python market. But the fact that there investment worthy Projects with Morelia that are worth buying.
But at the end of the day it's just the snakes. They are facinating & beautiful and there mannerisms & look is awesome.

Just thought i'd share my IJ Carpet
