Do you all mist your carpet enclosures?

I really like your enclosure Gio. Which brand is it? I'm not sure if I'm getting more AP cages, which I love, or if I'll try Constrictors NW or PVC Cages. I was just on Nick's website yesterday. I'm thinking about getting another coastal or jungle . He has some beautiful female caramel jags that would be perfect for my male caramel coastal. I'm just a little leery about keeping jags because of the potential neuro issues.

Thank you!

That is a Pro-Line from Constrictors NW.

I have been looking at coastals at Nick's page as well.

This video talks a little about the Jag issues. He bought all his carpets from Ed Lilley (Constrictors NW) and seems to know a bit about the level of neurological issues in certain snakes.

I think if you plan to purchase from Nick or any other reputable breeder you should wind up OK if you do go Jag.

I'm more of a locality, or "Mother Nature" colors type guy so I'm not experienced with Jag carpets.


This guy uses several cage brands. He seems to like Pro-Line, AP and Boaphile.

Personally I'd pick Pro-Line or AP based on the increased ceiling, heavier and better quality material.

The Boaphiles do look nice though.

Keep us posted on the potential new snake!

...I'm just a little leery about keeping jags because of the potential neuro issues.

don't be, this is no more serious than the BP Spider wobble. I've got 8 jags in my collection, 6 of them adults. 6 of them have imperceptible wobble, 1 has mild but noticeable wobble and 1 has a case of can't tell up from down. The one with the bad case had a pretty good wobble right out of the egg. It became more extreme a few years down the road. All the others have had no change from their hatchling state. With the exception of two 2015 hatchlings, all are now 8-9 yrs old. Ask Nick about the snakes you're interested in, I'm sure he'll be straightforward with you. I can't say for sure, but I'd be willing to bet anything he produces with severe wobble does not get offered for sale.
