Hello and welcome! Beautiful snake, but it's not a Jungle. You have a Jungle x Jaguar Carpet. Worth a lot more than a regular Jungle Carpet. If you don't mind me asking how much did you pay? If you got it for the price of a regular jungle you got one heck of a deal. Jungles run from $100.00 up to $300.00 for a trophy high yellow. Jaguars start at $300.00 up to $700.00.

Welcome to the forum! Great looking snake, your title should have had a warning: Caution, eye protection needed to view this thread... ;)

To me (and I'm not expert), it looks like it might have Irian Jaya blood in it...from what I understand, some of the Jaya/New Guinea locale specimens have a slightly reduced pattern with the orange in the sides. Could be completely wrong, but that's what I've heard/seen.

Absolutely gorgeous snake in any case! :)
