I've never seen one with these markings!

Wicked!!! those things look awesome! I think you've got something special there.

I was looking at yours and it looks a lot like mine but you say yours is a jag and ppl told me mine is a coastal:

[mainbutter]

He did not say they are jags, he said they are jag SIBLINGS.. in other words, normals from a clutch where one of the parents was a jag sib.

In general, jag sibs are treated as coastals, so yeah they SHOULD look similar!

Not because I want to send the thread off topic, but more because I feel it needs to be addressed..

JungleCarpet81, who told you your snake is a coastal? Unless you got it from the breeder directly, it's quite possible that it is not labeled correctly, or is a subspecies intergrade (a mix of different subspecies, not just coastal). This has been a problem in the US, specifically because export of new blood out of Australia is illegal.

Unless you KNOW your snake is a pure coastal, it's a bad idea to label offspring from that snake (if you decide to breed it) as pure coastals.

If you have no intention of breeding it or selling it, you can call it whatever you want

I got it from someone else it was a craigslist buy...So if im not sure what it is what should I label it as just in case someone does want to buy it? and if i plan to breed it. ill come here with pictures of the eggs and the parents before i label and sell them as carpets they arent. Id never lie to gain money for snakes. so all help from the people here in the know is welcomed thank you!

[mainbutter]

Just label it 'unknown subspecies'

To the OP, spankingly awesome babies!
