    My new irian jaya carpet python

    Picked this little guy up at the Phoenix reptile show yesterday and I'm hooked definitely more in my future.




    He's a little nippy, but from what I hear that's normal for babies and he's a great little feeder ate for me today already. From the pics of his parents, that I don't have , he's going to color up real nice. The yellow on his parents is like a hilighter it's amazing.

    You will enjoy that. Carpets make it close to the top if not the top of the list for excellent display snakes.

    I am very pleased with my coastal carpet and her display cage.


    My snake is nothing special either, she is a coastal mix or mutt of some type. Your animal should color up beautifully and really pop in the right setup.

    This is a nightly occurrence.

    Yeah I can't wait to get him in a nice climbing cage. I think carpets may have become my new obsession. You're snake is beautiful, my next one I get it think is going to be a striped coastal. I think those babies would be gorgeous

    Great snake to pick for a favorite! I agree and find carpets and boa constrictors to be my favorites right now. Actually a lot of the Australian snakes are good keeps. They seem to be less shy and rather hardy animals that handle husbandry errors well and seem rather social from my experience.

    If you have not looked into it yet, THE COMPLETE CARPET PYTHON by Nick Mutton and Justin Julander is a must have book.

    I have looked into it and the prices I'm seeing on amazon are insane. I saw it listed for over 300 dollars and as low as 40. It's just kinda crazy lol, but I'm going to check some bookstores locally and see if I can find it.

    Beautiful IJ Art. Carpets are my newest fascination too. Great snakes to keep.
