Looking good as usual Gio!
Interesting about the head. My 2, 3.5 year old Coastals aren't developing a big triangle head either. They both have small triangles.
Now Lizzie, my 7 year old Coastal has a big Triangle head.
It will be interesting to see what becomes of our three still growing Coastals.
The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

Hey,
are the heads of your coastals a bit more flat as well?
Jewel has a very flat head (top). I read in Nick and Justin's book some coastals have flatter heads. It may have been a locale of coastal. I'll have to re-read it.
At the reptile store today, the male and female Bredli were enormous. Like boas constrictor sized big!
Thanks for the kind words!

Re: Quick 6.
Jewel is such a pretty girl Gio. It's nice that she can eat such a large meal and still maintain that slender figure . I'm lovin that 3D background too.

Mack has a very similar head to Jewel.
I really notice the muscles on the sides and top of almost all albino carpets. It resembles two balloons on each side. And generally jungle carpets have very triangular heads. At least the ones I've seen. Obviously things differ from snake to snake, and age plays a role in the development of the head. But I do see variation between species. Bredli carpets have a very unique head too.

I've never really paid much attention to albinos since I'm not into the morphs.
My Jungle does have a definite triangle head, small, but then she is just 2.5 years old.

Re: Quick 6.
She looks awesome Gio. Good to see she was hungry. I am also curious about the head shape. We have 4 coastals and a Bredli. 3 of the coastals have narrower heads like Jewel and they range from 4 months to almost 2 years old. However Isabel has a very wide triangular head and is almost 2 also. The Bredli is still young but she has the typical bulldog looking head haha. I don't know if it fills out as they age or if it is more genetic.

Good observations.
I can tell Jewel is slowly getting a bigger head. I will re-read the coastal section in THE COMPLETE CARPET PYTHON and see what I find. I could swear there was a part about a certain locale of coastal that had flatter heads than other species and maybe other coastals.
I think they get wider as they age. 3.5 years is still very young and I think she is still adding length.
Keep me posted on what you see as your animals age!
