Question Capret Complex

Hey I'm just curious about the size defferences between the different subspecies of carpets. I know that Costals are the largest but where do the rest come in?

Jaguar is a species of Carpet? News to me.

Colonel, get yourself the Barker book. It has all the Aussie Carpets in there (6+ species).

lol Jeff!

Coastals I've heard of being from 8 to 12 feet, 6-7 for jungles and 4.5-6 for IJs.

Jungles and Jaguars have now been crossed as well.

In general:

Coastal (and its morph, the Jaguar) will get to 8-12 feet.
Jungles and Irians will get to 5-8 feet.

Other than that, you probably won't be owning any other types of carpets but....

Diamonds get to 5 - 6.5 feet and Bredl's get to about the same, only thicker.
