Thankyou all very much!!

Oh, also any guesses as to weather or not it is male or female?

[booyah]

I would guess that it is a male

[stephanbakir]

I don't know one carpet from another but why not find out if its a male or female?
Ask a vet or someone who knows how to probe/pop the snake

looks too big to pop.

I dont have access to the snake, I was hoping to possibly aquire him. They dont know his sex, or anything, all I have to go off of is the picture, and they know that he is 3yrs old.

you'll have to take him to a vet or reptile store and have an EXPERIENCED person probe it. sure looks like a jcp to me. not sure what you mean by 'true.'

[stephanbakir]

If hes 3 years old hes WAYYYY too old to pop.
Pretty sure he means not a morph, but yeh probing is your best bet.
Allot of vets will tell you that they can but ive had 2 of my animals injured by vets who "knew what they were doing" do your research first.

should have specified - exotic/reptile dvm

what I mean by true is if he is 100% jungle carpet.. I know that there are alot of crosses are out there and I would prefer to stay away from them if at all possible.

Looks like a jungle carpet.. Can't be certain though and the only way to accurately determine it's sex is to probe.

[belovedboas]

that's a jcp...looks like it anyway almost identical to mine:)

There is no way you can just look at it and be 100% certain what it is. He might have a little coastal in him. Who knows.

looks like a jungle to me a coastal is more of a pastel colour, an jags are a much more bright yellow

looks too big to pop.

He's not too big to pop, it's just hard to do. We've popped the nine foot Bredli's before.

As for his genetics you never know. He does have a lot of nice side speckling that I find in my DiamondX but I wouldn't say there's any Coastal there.

How can you be so sure it's a JCP?

[belovedboas]

I never heard of Bredli getting that big before. Popping anything over a year old can cause internal damage to my understanding.
