OK,, Now we're talking!
I remember you wanting one of these and you did it right!
I like the Bredli choice. They get big, and thick.
Carpets can take HUGE meals, and there are a few well know breeders who will push the limits with no worries.
I have a 1 year plus coastal/jungle or coastal/diamond. I started her on rat fuzzies, then moved to small rats, and the other day she took a medium rat that the royal refused.
I will not always use the larger sizes, but they can and will take something easily 3 times their girth. I also would not push it until you have a well established, settled animal. I know it's not your first rodeo so you'll be up to speed quickly.
I highly recommend THE COMPLETE CARPET PYTHON. Nick Mutton and Justin Julander authored it and it's one of the best in the "Complete" series of snake books.
I want to hear how this compares to your Brooksi for activity and display purposes.
I'm stoked for you.
ENJOY!!!
