Outside carpet pics

[UwabamiReptiles]

Just thought I'd do a little update on a few of my carpets. I took a few of them outside to the railing right outside my house so here they are:

Here's my craigslist female jungle. She doesn't have a crazy bright yellow on her but I really like how dark her black is.

I love the blue!

And finally my diamondxjungle female. She was all over the place, when I decided it as time to go back in, she decided to bolt and weave in and out of every rail she could. Fun times.

Tell me about it, I remember one time I was holding her while trying to clean her cage and she dashed into the open drawer in my dresser. I had to take all the drawers out, she was just being difficult. It can get fun sometimes though, with her being a 6ft carpet and all:D

And the ij is suppose to be from a selectively bred line from parents that were imported about 15 years ago. So I guess her line of ij just gets huge.

Yea the light was hitting just right at that angle to catch some good iridescence.

Its so hard to imagine a 8' IJ if I didnt actually see pics of it. She is big and I am amazed and impressed.

[marvelfreak]

Sweet pictures and beautiful snakes.

[millertime89]

She is HUGE! I find it hard to believe she's pure IJ.

[red ink]

Nice pics mate

[Terranaut]

The story behind her is that the original animals were brought in from a different area of new guinea than were they are usually collected. These particular animals were kept together to breed because they look a little different than any other ij(ijs have the same basic uniform look). I've questioned too if she was mixed with something and even asked the guy I bought her from to give me the info on her. She is a direct descendant of that original pair. Either way she is my big ole' sweet girl.

Thanks shaun, haven't seen you around in awhile.

nice outdoor pics and carpets as always uwabami. the diamond is my fav in this set.

how many years did it take bertha to hit 8 ft?

[UwabamiReptiles]

Thank you MoreliAddict, I got Bertha at the 2010 Daytona show and she was pretty big then. She is a 2005, so I guess 7 years to get there. She's also never had a clutch so I'm sure that has helped her get some size. I keep pretty detailed records on all my snakes and she has put on about a pound since I got her. I never measured her before, I just had her on that railing and she stretched out so I figured I would see how long she actually is.

Great pics. :)

[bladeblaster]
