Carpet pythons

[Aste88]

I'll try to answer from the little experience I have, I own 3 carpets: 2 jungle and one coastal. All of them are yearling.

1 - A calm carpet will be similar to a boa. They hold on a lot and try to climb everywhere. Not all are that calm tho, 2 out of my 3 are squeamish to being touched and one will often bite. They should calm down with age. More active than a boa in the enclosure, they're always wandering around.

2 - No. All snake should be housed separately for many good reasons (safety, illness transmission, progress tracking etc). Also you would need a really big cage for two adult carpets.

3 - I guess just like the spider gene it really depends from the snake. My Jaguar shows no neuro symptoms at all. She's actually the sweetest and best eater.

4 - Babies are often nippy but it allows you to work with them and tame them more.

5 - Beginning of the summer.

6 - Find a local one, I can't help with that
