    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Those things are so freakin' awesome looking, but how are you supposed to take care of them?
 
Are they arboreal snakes? I know that obviously Chondros are but Carpets I thought were ground dwellers. So, what does the hybrid take to? Cool pic btw, can't wait to see that animal after the change!

Matt, it depends on the ssp. Most jungles, in my experience, are about 50-75% arboreal if given the opportunity. But I would say they are at least 50/50. It's probably a toss of the coin with carpondros. I would just hope they had the chondro attitude rather than the carpet attitude......carpets are mean. lol.

My Jungle Carpet is just a little over 2 feet and is not mean at all. On the other scale my Biak is the spawn of satan :dgrin:

I hear this all the time about carpets...

I have two 8 month old jungle carpet pythons. Neither have ever hissed, struck, feigned, or made any other threatening gesture towards me or anyone else in my house. Worst thing one ever did was poop on my girlfriend. Meanwhile, a GTP I handled at a local show bit the owner three times when he was trying to remove him from me (And not doing anything wrong - Snake just liked me I guess). Please stop spreading the rumor about carpets being mean tho :( Never ran across an aggressive one.
