Jungle Carpet or Bredli Carpet

[mainbutter]

Personally I prefer bredlis over jungles, though it's very close

I just love how pretty bredlis are.

Though coastals are my absolute favorite.

out of the two, i'd go for bredl's............... but yes, they can get pretty heavy bodied, at least compared to a jungle.

how much long or shorter do bredlis get?

Personaly I would go for the Jungle Carpet Python,, cracking snake and usually have a great temperment, well in my experience they have anyway. Bredls pythons are a gorgeous snake too but they dont do as much for me. Plus,, look at the colours of a jungle carpet,, cracking and vivid..

I think a jungle carpet python would do best for me in my situation...and their pattern is gorgeous... that is definitely a snake that is crowd pleaser when you take it outside and show it off!Hey do you guys think a 6 ft. adult jungle for 200-250 bucks a good deal?

Sounds like a deal if you just want to breed without caring about quality. Hate to put it that way, but not much of a better way to word it. You're evaluating your new lifetime pet. Decide if you want a baby or adult, then the price range you want to play in. The more you pay the nicer the adult, usually. Buy from a reputable breeder. Will Leary, Will Bird, Chris Behof (BP.net member and seems like a cool guy. Great animals too boot!) John Hare (I think, I feel like I'm wrong on that name) There is so much out there you shouldn't have to settle for something you do not want.

My 05 female bredli is around 11lbs, very thick bodied but is always looking for a best friend shes around 8' I need to measure her again. My male is an 06 and weighs about 8lbs. Hes around the 7' mark and just like the female is always looking for a best friend. Any time I am around the enclosure they both come to the window to watch. They both have perches and I catch them hanging out every night.

My 07 female and male jag sibling are great also but I much prefer the bredli's.

Jungles all the way! You can't go wrong.....every time they shed they get prettier and prettier for the first few years if you get good stock....makes it sooooo addicting.

I've been reading up a lot about different carpets and so far I think the Jags are the coolest. Though, I do LOVE the Jungles as well. I've heard the Bredli's are pretty calm and not that nippy like the Jungles tend to be when babies/juveniles. Though, through time the Jungles get nicer and not as nippy. I chose the JCP, I really like them :].

I don't know where this "comparing nippiness of carpet subspecies" started, but IMO it's most likely a load of hooey. If you want a snake that isn't nippy, look for one that isn't nippy. You'll find aggressive hatchlings among all carpet subspecies, and you'll find calm ones too. Get the kind of snake you like, but put in the effort to find one that has the looks and temperment you're looking for!
