    Congrats!

    Carpets are pretty awesome. I just got my first 2 within the past 2 months. My little one can be a little nippy, but the older one is very laid back. Your little one will probably only give you a run for your money to start with and then will hopefully mellow out.

    Thanks for the suggestion! I'm definitely going to track it down now.
    Definitely get a pair... one's better than two as they say.

    Not only are some of the morphs cool but then you have all the pure bloodlines to work with as well.

    I want The Compete Carpet book so bad.
    Awesome! I hope your pairings are a huge success!

    I'm not sure what my plans will be for her down the line, but I'll have to find a hot male for her at some point.

    I'm definitely a fan of pure bloodlines. Like I said in another thread, pure diamonds are in my future and there is no way I am crossing them with anything. I don't believe in fixing what isn't broken, and they are gorgeous!

    My friend has a mixture of carpet python dispositions that range from a sweet, codependent male, a very tolerant female, a male that will bite your head off when you try to take him out of his enclosure, but deals with you when he's out, and finally a female that purposely messes with you in order to make you flinch when you take her out.

    I'm hoping my girl will be a nice, mellow sweet thing like my friend's pure diamond (he's a bit of a herp-a-derp though lol), but we'll see.
