I just reread the post again and are you asking if a jungle tiger is a snake. I have never heard of this kind of snake. do you know the scientific name.

[sdoup]

no i'm sorry....he's just send me a sms with tha name...whene i'm find him i'll ask and i let you know!!!
thanks anyway!

[BILLP]

Also If it is a tiger snake. the tiger snake from austrialia is venomous.

[sdoup]

no i don't think that is venomous...
we don't have venomous snakes here in greece at captivity...
they are few the snake keepers...and the most of theme the don't know nothing about snakes!!
i found one kingsnake (she told me that it's white and black!!!) she wasn't knew what kind of snake it is ....and the price of the king is 100 euro for a two years old king!!!
grrrr....they are too fu*&^*^*%%ing expensive the herps here!!!!!

the jungle tiger is a mix of snakes!!!
it has the body of king snake, the attitude of a tame cornsnake and colors like a jungle carpet!!
so that must be a special snake eh?!?!?!

i'll try to get some pictures and i'll post it!!!

[Matt]

hmmm....that doesnt make too much sense!

[Dom]

I am quite mixed up here...

Does it look like what u said or is it a Hybrid of a King and a jungle carpet.. As I don't think it can be done///

[norman]

hahaha!!! i wanna see pics!!!

[tightsqueeze]

i don't know if i would buy it because you wouldn't realy know ANY of the requirements for it as it is a hybrid...it is different and you would know what caracturistics it inhareted from the parents !

[snakemann87]

i wouldnt buy it do to all the inbreeding, thats alot of crossing for a snake.

[Dom]

Tighsqueeze good point there..

Don.. What are u saying ???

[rethius]

Inbreeding??? Its just a hybrid people. hybrids are just a mix thats all, Genetic load is not even a problem!

[Lisa]

maybe it is a king snake with the temperment of a corn and the colouring of a jungle carpet python?

Some things get lost in the translation, and i've seen snakes with more then one name. ie, ball pythons are also known as royal pythons. viper boas are known as new guinia ground boas. I might be a hybrid or intergrade or it could be a perfectly normal king. How many times have we described our snakes as having the temperment of a puppy (puppy tame)? does this mean they are half puppy?

sdoup: try and get a picture and or latin name, it could clear up everything.

[vanderkm]

Good possibility it is what we would call a 'jungle corn' - a cross of california king and corn and in some instances the normally colored ones that have a yellow base color and dark brown saddles could resemble a carpet python (it is a stretch I know - we have both and no real resemblance, but I have heard the comparison before). Striping is common enough in kings and corn parents and this would likely lighten the base and saddle colors even more and stretch them out, so seems like a reasonable possibility. If so, our jungle corns have been nice pets - very similar to corns.

[sdoup]

here is a beter picture!!!
it's a very nice and tame snake!
it's about 30cm and i just love it!!!

[Xetox]

I just dont see how it was done....but I would love to see some pics off it! If its a kewl snake then and you are interested in it I would buy it!

But if its a mutt as we would say ;) I would not buy it to breed it!

[sdoup]

i can't understand what do you mean mutt...
i'm not intresting to breed it.
it's a king-corn cross.it's healthy and very motion snake!
it's eating very well too!!

[Xetox]

Well what I mean mutt is what we refer to when u breed two different species together......the term is used more with dogs say when u breed a rott with a collie....that would be a mutt.

There are nothing wrong with them, normally they make better pets than pure breeds. <in dogs that is, I am not sure about herps>

He does look like a very pretty snake tho.

[tightsqueeze]
