They're just a standard python in terms of care. Treat them just like a Coastal or Darwin Carpet.

There are three highly recommending texts (in order)…

The Complete Carpet Python
by Nick Mutton and Justin Julander, PhD.
2nd Edition with a special chapter on advanced reproduction by Dr. Benson Morrill.
The first edition is still very much worth getting.

A Guide to... Australian Pythons in Captivity
by Adam Elliott
Published: 1st August 2014
ISBN: 9780987244772

Keeping & Breeding Australian Pythons
Edited by Mike Swan

Prices vary from $80 down to around $45, depending on whether it is a hardcover or soft cover version and which text it is. Availability is the hard part. You can try second-hand booksellers as well as retailers of new books. You may be able to take them out on loan from your local state library to check them out first.

There will also be a second edition of The Complete Carpet Python that should be on the market in the next 6 months I believe.
