Thanks for the nice comments guys.

Here's the boyfriend he's an older man..... he shed a few days earlier than her.

Do you plan on breeding them? If so you will diffidently get some gorgeous snakes.

Maybe in a couple of years mate.... only if there's still a market for them here and I can move the progeany, otherwise it may not be worth the effort.

Really bright looking. I love the contrast on the red wood!

the females one of the nicest jungles i've seen,but you already know she's a favorite of mines

i love how clean her yellow is,not even the slighest hint of going muddy.her yellows so clean and her black so deep,she's got to produce some high quality hatchlings once up to size

i am unsure of the laws in your part of oz regards crossing carpet species mate,but imo she would make some very nice 50% jungle jaguars.if you found a nice high yellow pure coastal jag for her.

cheers shaun

The breeder i got her off is doing just that Shaun or at least he has the stock to do it.... I'm not sure if he will or not. I myself am 50/50 on JAGS, I find them to be very interesting snakes but they have a dubious reputation here so I don't know if I will be dabbling in them. They still are at a premium price here as well over 1K. The biggest concern we have here is what to do with the sibs... as the home of Morelias with endless supply of them, crosses aren't really easy to move. I have seen them being given away for free here (nice looking ones at that that would fetch a fair price outside of OZ). The herp community here is heavily divided with the JAG issue (IMO though a pretty snake is a pretty snake

).

I might see what the JAG future is like here in a couple of years and decide then, my priority (if I do decide to breed these two) is to get some reduced pattern gold JCPs. I still really want to get a pair of quality B&W Jullaten JCPs as well as maybe an albino variegata or a RSP as a display animal. But as always the problem we all face is the want of space lol.
