New snakes!!!!

I just traded for 1.3 M. bredli from Chris Stewart of angolanpythons.com. They arrived this morning, and I love 'em!! After hatching a bunch of BPs, I'd forgotten just how small and slender morelia babies really are. They have all had a few meals, and thier weights ranged from 24-35 grams. Here is a shot of a couple of the girls.

It will be a while before we get any babies from these guys, but I've always wanted Bredl's, the adults are just awesome. It's hard to believe that these guys will be 7-8 ft+ someday!!

Thanks for looking!

Sweet pickup man! Good luck with those. Morelia are awesome...

Congrats on the new snakes! Bredli are awesome and you have some very nice specimens! :handshake: :D

Thanks guys! I can't wait until they are bigger than my JCP male (7 ft), I just love the brick red adults!

I looove centralian carpets! Good luck with them, can't wait to see how they mature. :)

Very beautiful little girls there. I cant wait to see them all grown up!
Congrats:carrot:

Very cool score!!! Do you know if they are Laziks or Price? Or a mix of both? I know you have been talking about getting some bredli for a while, glad you could make it happen!!!

They are Lasik line, in fact Chris has a some of Casey's original breeders. I wish I had some Price line too, but there don't seem to be very many out there to be had. Yours are Lasik line, right Ben? I would like to add a stiped male to the group, but that will have to wait, as there are more BPs that need to be acquired :D .

-Evan

Yep, ours are Laziks too. And hopefully they will finally give us some clutches this year, and if they do I am sure we will have a few stripes too. But, we'll see. Well, have fun with them!!!

Evan,



Congrats on your Bredli's!!! :) I thought about picking some up but I just keep adding more coastals and West Papuans to the collection!!

Congrats! Keep us posted with pics as they get older. I love how red carpet babies are.

Outstanding,:sweeet: great pick up!!!!

Will they stay that color?

Awesomeness! Congrats! =)

Thanks for the kind words all! There will more pics as they grow for sure! :cool:

Sassygirl, they go through an ontogenic color change like other carpets, though it isn't quite as drastic. Here are some pics of adult Bredli, they are a beautiful brick red.

What is a typical weight for an adult and what do they eat as adults? You say 8 feet, but they don't get anywhere near as heavy bodied as most BCI of the same length do they?

Not near as heavy bodied as BCI. They get a little more girth on them than other carpets, but not much. Typical adult weight would probably be about 15 lbs give or take. Adults will eat large and jumbo rats no with no problem.

Nice :gj:


I think the adults have one of best looking faces of any snake ever :cool:
