Wow, I just realized I can type in purple! boo yah. ah well, I guess moving stresses snakes...

Aww how cute. To bad you weren't able to get a picture.

Oh good she if finally 100% comfortable in her new home. Have you been holding her. How is her attitude? I know when was feeding last night Gimlet was in deep blue and he tried to bite me when I uncovered him.

well, there's always you could move, :/
I dunno if you'd do that...

wait.. ohh 21.. nice.

How old are you?

I'm 13, so pets are limited to what my parents agree on. My Dad won't go near the snakes if he can avoid it, while my mom wants to know "how's Marty? How's Houndini?" At least I have that road to go down...
Anyway, where did you GET that georgous snake?

Oooohhh... Such a pretty snake! That is EXACTLY what I want for my next snake, if I can convince my mom and dad to let me get another... Oh dad, why can't you love them?

Luke has both of those

Hey, thanks for the message I'd be glad to offer help on them.
Most Carpets do not get over 10 ft. Some Coastals can get to the 10-12 feet range, but most of the others generally stay smaller.
The Coastal I have came from a smaller line. I expect she will be in the 6-7 foot range. (I made sure of asking because I moved into a city that does not allow snakes longer than 10ft.)
IJ's are generally in the 4ft range. Jungles are usually about 5ft range, & Diamonds can range 5-6 ft range.
Of course all of this depends on the bloodlines too.
I know of two IJ that were either some of the first WC IJ's or from original WC lines & they were in the 7ft range at about 16yrs old.

IJ's are a great Carpet to start with, if size is a major factor.
I have a hard time picking my absolute favorite, I love all of my Carpets! My male Jungle has the best personality! He's my only adult right now, the rest are juvs & babies.
Out of all the Carpets, I have heard that Jungles tend to be the bitiest, but not all of them are. Tyr is a big sweetheart & he is adored by many of my friends.

Be careful what breeders you get them from. I will only get from breeders that I know personally or that come highly recommended.
That said, one of the first people I will personally recommend is Luke Snell (Blueisola on iHerp). I have two babies from him & they are fabulous! Great eaters, great personality & stunning animals! Luke is great to work with!

Let me know what you are looking for (IJ, Jungle, Diamond, Coastal, Jaguar... & I'll let you know the breeders I know that have great animals.)

Beware, they are just as addicting, if not more than Corns! Space is what keeps me reigned in on my numbers.

Will do! I'll probably keep posting updates in that thread as I play with it some more.

Congradulations on your first corn. I know that waiting feeling...
I always eats me alive! But it's usualy worth it in the end.

Your welcome. I can't wait till she is in your hands and I know she is safe.

haha that is a big change! ive got a few friends tht moved from st. louis to college station ha so theyre right there with you!

o wow that is pretty intense. where r y'all living now?

haha thats awesome! always great to find fellow texans!!

I will have to see about taking some natural photos for you. I am not sure if I have any blooming flowers. I am going to have to go look. Hhhmmmm

Nice! My name is the same there too so feel free to add me!

No but they have the iHerp mobi site. I use that or the normal website through my droid all the time to log in feedings.

Very cool! I'm sure you'll post plenty of pictures once you get her.
