hey all, i seen some awesom black & white carpets. not in the flesh but just pics of them. noticed they were called "jaguars" ? or sumtihn like that ? are they a seperate species or are they jsut a colour morph ?
what other black & white variations are there ? are they considerd "rare" hence command for a higher price ?
right now im really considering a black & gold jungle (cant stop thinkin bout them ! lol) Or a black & white of some sort (with similar patternning to a jungle)
cheers ! |

qld regulations dont allow the leagle breeding and trade of colour morphs/mutations apparently |

Also i can guarantee that the albino Darwins will be bred with every morelia there is in the future and the colour morphs that will come from that are only limited to the imiganitaion...Wasn't there something that came out not long ago that most morelia are now scientifically or taxonomically known as only Morelia Spilota other than carinata,viridis and amythstenia?Also in Vic all are classified as Morelia S Varieagata so where do we draw the line and what is right or wrong?????

| Too true,and has been happening for quite a long time now.Anyone line breeding and selecting the best looking offspring to breed with each oter or another from a different bloodlie is still designer reptiles to me.When we see what is going to be produced in the not too near future i think the demand for designer reptiles be it right or wrong in whoevers eyes will be huge!!!If i were a newbie i would definitely choose a brightly coloured carpet over the average coastal but that's just me...
