I’ve been moving mine up gradually as I have a number of different tub and enclosure sizes in my room available at any time. It can certainly vary between individual animals, but I know that some other Morelia folks here have gone right into adult enclosures with lots of clutter and hides with no issues. My 2-3yo carpets are in a divided T8 currently. May move them to a divided T25 next or maybe even go right into their adult cages when they arrive.
I just personally like smaller enclosures and moving up gradually as it’s easier for me when spot cleaning and making my rounds through my snake room. I don’t like sifting through tons of substrate hunting for bowel movements and a smaller, but still adequate floor space helps in that regard.

I’ll check it out. I’ve been keeping my eye on morphmarket specifically jungles, but just haven’t felt ready to pull the trigger yet. I’m sure the day will come, as long as the wife doesn’t say no [emoji23]
In the meantime I’ll have to settle for the mafia’s pics.

No fast movements or cell phones too close to this kid or a strike is inevitable. Been nailed 3 times in two days. She’s pretty so she gets a pass obviously.
Pretty close to moving out of quarantine and into the rack in the snake room. She’ll do fine in the 11qt tub, but I’ll see how she takes too it before considering the 23qt.

Coming up on her last week of quarantine before joining the snake room here. Still up on her perches almost every single night like clockwork. Going to make a great display animal in a 4’ cage eventually with shelves, perches, and sky hides.

Looking forward to the 4 foot cage for sure!

Me too! Given her highly arboreal tendencies I’d like to give her one of the 4x2.5x2’ cages. She’d easily fit through the vents in the back currently though. So she’ll follow the same routine as the rest of the Morelia here: VE-2 rack in either the 11 or 23 quart tub when she leaves quarantine, then the divided 4’ or 6’ cage, then her forever home.

Re: 2020 0.1 Jungle Carpet Python Progression
Quarantine graduation day for this little girl. She’ll probably grow out of the VE 108-11 tub rather quickly, but she still fits snugly in an RBI mini hide. Once that’s too small for her she’ll get the VE 108-23 tub with small hides.
Gotta love a screaming yellow and jet black jungle!

She's looking stunning. Love the contrast.

And it keeps getting better! Was up on her perches, locked and loaded after an hour. Due to eat so I said what the hell and offered a rat pup. Wasted no time at all!
