I was just wondering what is the friendliest carpet python and the easiest to take care of?:rolleyes:
 
Can't go wrong with a Murray Darling! They're a really laid back, easy going pythin, perfect for first time owners.
 
any carpet snake :p
nah haha i got coastal love him but its personal preference of what you think looks better, size they will grow to etc
 
ive saved a 3&a half foot carpet python from the wild from birds attacking the poor thing ive kept it for 2 weeks now to help him recover, he is active no signs of sickness or fatigue and i still cant get him or her to eat ive tried pinky rats pinky mice thawed out and i tried live mice and he still wont take anything. could anyone please help as id hate to see the little guy die, he does drink though
 
is there anything else i can try? as i am new to having snakes i need all the help i can get

how are you keeping this snake, does it have heating? Really you should pass it on to r.s.p.c.a or someone that is a wildlife keeper. At the least, dont try to hassle it too much to eat, it probably needs to be vet checked or kept quiet with no stress for at least a week or two.
 
I haven't seen a friendlier carpet python than this girl here. She is so adorable, too lazy to bite she is just too gorgeous. I can kiss the top of her head without her backing off. She is a very tolerant snake.

im keeping it in a nice space with the heat pads and everything and he is in a nice quiet spot im letting him eat wen he is ready no forcing involved. he likes to be handled now and then he is so placid, wen i take him out to explore he always stays with me

What type of carpet is she
 
NanzOr she is a Port Macquarie carpet python - also known as a diamond/coastal intergrade. I have 4 of these guys. Had them for 3 years and have never been bitten by any of them. None have attempted to bite and are all very placid.

I have two bredli yearlings. The male is a snappy little bugger. Female will snap now and then but isn't just down right bitey like he is. Chalk and cheese in personality :D
 
I have to disagree Kathy,this one is the most placid snake,i would trust her with a 2 year old and no she wont bite.
