Most of the ones i've seen in darwin and surrounding area's are like the top photo. I believe that one in the first pic to be a friends female that he has as a wallpaper on his site and all his are very similar to her. You'll find it probably to be a locality thing like every other carpet with minor difference in colouration depending on where their from.

They're both nice looking snakes. I'm not saying it is, but that first one nearly looks like a bredli, its got the right colours.

Morelian you can get them for a fair price. If the top photo is my friend's which i'm 95% sure it is.
He sold the clutch from her this season for $220 a hatchling, which is good value if you ask me.

I wouldn't think so considering they are from the Top End. Perhaps if you provided alot of extra heat?

Morelia Variagata?? (I think..)
Nice snakes though, seen some stunners around, Moosy has some gorgeous ones, and Inny has one too.

I place an ad on the for sale section for two pairs of juvies at 450 a pair 3 days ago and sold pretty much the next day, there's pics of one of the juvies there if you want to have a look, Under Juvie pythons 4 sale.
I kinda like the banded form but also have the bare back pattern of this species, some examples of this specimen that I've seen give JCP's a run for their money, I often refer to them as poor mans jungle after all some of them possess jungles temperement.
Cheers,
Joel
