    Re: Any information on BPs in the wild?

    I'm not going to be any help here because I don't know....but "The Complete Carpet Python" is an AWESOME book. I read it cover to cover and it's worth it's weight in gold. Just had to say that.

    Here are some clips of field herping wild BP's in Africa however

    The first one (and best one) is in German, so Zina won't have a problem but the rest of us will have to click "CC" in the title bar at the bottom of the video for English subtitles. It's AMAZING how calm they are even in the wild. They are field collecting in Ghana which produces a LOT of morphs and wild BP's including the Enchi morph which originated from a village in Ghana by the name of....you guessed it....Enchi.

    Second video is the buying process of wild specimens collected....looks like the one they're holding is a calico of some sorts.

    Last one is a clip of the termite mounds that wild BP's actually live in and some wild caught eggs.
