    Carpets are crossed so often you'll never know exactly what you have unless you have data from the breeder.
    it's not a hybrid (crossing two distinct species), it's an intergrade (crossing sub-species of the same species, in this case Morelia Spilota). As noted, m.s. intergrades are quite common. Hard to tell what they are sometimes, like in this case. However at 5-6 feet I would suspect there is some jungle in there, my expectation for a diamond/coastal intergrade would be a larger snake. but, who knows.
