Need Carpet Python info please

[SpOoKy]

Hello all, I have decided to give in and get my guy a carpet python that he has wanted for oh so long. My reptile store has 2, 48'' in stock right now and I am trying to decide what one would be the better choice. The first one is a Irian Jaya Carpet Python 48" Male , and the other guy is a Diamond x Jungle Carpet Python 48" Male.

I will be going this weekend to put a deposit on one of them to be held until Christmas time but I would like to get some info on them to help make my decision.

What are some links to some good care sheets and any other pro's/con's would be great.

Sooooooo what do you guys think... Irian Jaya Carpet Python or the Diamond x Jungle Carpet Python

Any help would be great, thanks

pretty much identical in terms of care, so go for the one you like the look of best / has the best temprament.

There is a carpet python care sheet on my website

Diamond cross all the way! Have you seen them in person yet? If so how pronounced is the diamond influence?

I used Anthony's care guide when I first started out with carpets, can't go wrong with it :)

Couldn't be more true. I HATE albionos, but to most they are beautiful.

its all about which one he likes better. also depends on what size you want.

That's what I was going to say. The Irian Jaya won't get as big as the other. Other than that it's really up to the size and the look of the snake. Either will be great I'm sure. I've only had my Jungle carpet a couple weeks but have really enjoyed him.

ANd totally go for who is less bitey *lol*

But that would be an awesome book for him later on if he decides to breed them :P
