    2019 0.1 Rockhampton Coastal Carpet Python Progression

    My first venture into the Morelia club.
    breeder pic
    This girl was produced by Michael Pennell at Python in a Pear Tree and hatched 5/25/2019. Michael’s breeding pair was produced by Paul Harris of U.K. Pythons and imported by Nick Mutton in the late 2000s.
    Nick, Michael, and a friend of theirs were the first three in the USA to obtain Rockhampton locality coastal carpets. I believe that original group of animals imported to the US was hatched around 2006-07. So the parents are currently 12-13yrs old, F2 cbb, making the 2019 hatchies F3 cbb.

    Dad.
    Both Nick and Michael seem to say this northern locality stays a bit smaller than other coastal carpets, reaching around 7’ give or take. Also lighter bodied when compared to southern localities like Brisbane.
    Without further ado, here is the newest member of the herd at my place.


    Typical baby carpet attitude. Bit me probably at least 9 times before I got her into her tub but didn’t even break the skin. She’s in shed so probably won’t attempt a first feeding until she completes shed cycle. Was told she’s on large mice pinks and can move up to fuzzies soon.
    Super pumped to finally be working with Morelia. I feel like this decision was overdue by about 15yrs haha
