^^^^^
all the info is on the guys website mate

the guys selling visuals and hets...

the hets are 3000 Euro's,i'm thinking the visuals will be anything from 6000 Euros to ?????

its Recessive so it will work on the same as an Albino would mate

Oh cool, what exactly does a visual mean? I've heard it with different morphs but never knew.

the visuals are the ones that are showing the Morph (the black carpets)

the snakes from the clutch,that are not black,will be hets (het black carpet)

its a Recessive Morph,this means,having an allele that is only visable,when it is paired with another recessive allele of the same type

so to get Black Carpets,you need to breed

black x black (visual's)

black x het black

het Black x het Black

Ah okay, I was thinking more on the lines of markers like with some pied hets but it literally means the morph is visible. Thanks for the explanation.

Doesn't really do much for me.. Nice looking but I wouldn't go out of my way to own one.

Stunning snakes.. Everyone loves the MBK's for their solid colour and these are even better (Morelia wins over kings anyway) :)

You'd rather that than an Albino Carpet? (asking bc I know you like albinos)

Its cool, but like most melanistics, its a dead end morph and can not be enhanced or used to enhance other morphs.

to be honest Gregg,i think the guy has created the ultimate good looking Carpet...

so there's imo no need to enhance it,or other Morphs with it

but i hear what your saying re dead end mate

I say dead end morph strictly from an investment standpoint. Morphs like melanistic ane leucistic come out strongly but the prices drop so fast that if you are not in ground floor, you will be selling $300 snakes by the time you produce your own.

i agree mate

imo with the ease of breeding Carpets coupled with their average clutch size,in 4 years there will be plenty Panther Morphs and Hets out there,the 5th year onwards the price will change dramatically,from what i'm guessing you would have to pay for a visual today

it's still a very good looking snake,and imo will still be in demand,so it will be interesting to see how these go financially

personally i could not care less about the money side of things,i'm just in awe that mother nature threw these out there,from a pair of average looking jungles

you can cross them with albinos to make albino melanistics...

I'm feeling the same . Sleek looking though.

Very nice... I'm not one for a patternless snake though but exciting times for Morelia Freaks none the less. I think they may have also cracked "Black Princess" (from the rumor mills) down here this year - hypermelanistic M s variegata. There's also a hypermelanistic Aspidites ramsayi awaiting a clutch to hatch this year here.

the Black Princess is a beautiful snake,and she looks like a carpet (obviously)

imo Panther 2005 looks so shiney and so black,imo its almost like he does not look like a carpet

i hope that makes sense mate

i think the snake in the picture marked Panther 2005,is the BEST Carpet i have EVER seen,by miles:shocked::shocked::shocked:

ive been following Black Princess progress on ozzy,i look forward to updates on her

it might not be able to be enhanced, bit it could be used to enhance other morphs.

Gorgeous creature but not so much that I'd ever pay that kind of money for one.

to be honest mate,who ever buys pairs from this first clutch,will re coup what they spent and more,from their own first clutch

imo everyone who buys pairs will make more than their money back,carpets are very easy to breed and they have large clutches

How can turning another morph black enhance it?

Only with the albino will it work to produce anything interesting, in it making a snow morph. Which could be valuable if you wish to make albinos and panthers with only one male.

Sucks that it'll wash the entire pattern out of zebra's and granites. Granite carpets HAVE to the be the best granite morph out there (burms close second)
