He has yet to come down from his perch up on his vines. Caught him drinking earlier, and even then, he was hanging straight down from his vine, held in place by the tip of his tail 
Can't wait until he's big enough to move into a PVC enclosure like I did with Manasa recently. Bet he'll look even more awesome then 
Two questions, one quick, one stupid.
He was sold as a "high yellow" jungle. Does that mean he'll have more yellow as he gets older (he's about a year old already), or just that what yellow he has will become brighter? Doesn't matter to me either way, mostly just curious.
With carpets being semi-arboreal, is it acceptable to have a vertical temperature gradient, or should I stick with the standard horizontal one?
Thanks for the help and the compliments. I'll be sure to pass them on to him, though I suspect he'll just sit there and glare at me for deigning to approach his lair

Re: Another first-time carpet owner
Great looking jungle Das. They're fun snakes to keep. They usually hit their color peaks at around 2 so the yellow should get brighter and the black should get darker and richer. A vertical or horizontal temperature gradient will work. I have a bit of both for my carpets. I use IR heat bulbs for their basking spots and I also have uths on the enclosure floors. I could probably nix the uths during the summer. I'll be switching to rhps soon because I think they're the most efficient heat source. Keep us updated as your jungle grows.
