    Carpet pythons

    Sounds like you have done your research well!

    I have 3 Coastals and one Jungle.

    While I love the looks of Jags, I am against having them for myself. I don't judge anyone that has them, but I don't want to personally encourage the market by buying one. I just don't believe that it is right to propagate brain issues. Yeah, yeah, they do fine as some say. How do they know that the snakes are not in pain? I had a brain injury many years ago from a skiing crash. I "looked" fine and functioned ok, but was in excruciating pain with severe dizziness for over 20 years. Anyone that has had long term dizziness can tell you that it is hell.

    Back on track; Carpets are great display animals with a bit more skills needed for handling and understanding. You won't be disappointed.



    Good to see that you are planning on a big display cage. I just moved my Jungle girl into a 4x2x4 and don't regret it at all. Best move I could have done. Yeah, it takes up the space of 2 or 3 cages, but the enjoyment factor is way up!!

    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.
