    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....

ok i want to breed carpet pythons and i been doing my research and most care sheets tell you the basics. i have a female as of now and i want to breed her. shes around 7 ft right now (jungle carpet). anyway i was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on some things like :
What is the best caging choice for them racks or cages. what racks or cages do you prefer. how do you properly cool them down. and what are some of your personal expeirences with them.
i love my female i have right now and i dont want to make a move until i know im ready
i feel i pretty much got it nailed but i was more worried about caging more than anything. i know people use racks but what size quart tubs would hold 2 carpets properly over a breeding season.
i was planning to get the proper supplies after taxes and then wit till breeding season
please feel free to tell me anything else you know
Thank you
 
What do you have your female housed in currently?
If you want racks, your choices are limited: Vision, ARS, and Freedom Breeder all have racks with drawers/tubs that are approximately 3'x2' - IMO, these are big enough for all but the largest carpets. I currrently keep mine in 3x2 cages and/or Vision boa tubs (but I still want that ARS rack)
 
right now shes in a custom glass tank thats 48L x 24w x 25H theres a picture of her in her cage is about 2 months old.(the rock was there to help her during shed and i just didnt take it out) thanks for the different racks ill look them up
