Hey Everyone

If not any other ideas..

Could try and find some Cape York carpets, some of them look similar to jungles and the ones I have are placid. Not entirely sure how big they're going to get though.

Hi, I think if you do not like huge pythons and want to breed them sucessfully then some Blond Macs ould be perfect. They are beautiful python which only grow to about 3 - 4 feet long. Another idea if you don't mind the size and don't have a budget are Womas. They are awsome snakes, but not great for the newbie breeder. Jungles are expencive, but grow only about 5 feet long. They can be a bit "bitie" but they are so beautiful.

So after going over the choices I gave you I would suggest the Blonde Macs. This is because you do not have to buy larger enclosures for them, you will not be intimmidated by their size, they are not too pricey, they are very friendly, and are quite good lookers to.

Hope this has helped!!!

With the BHP's your looking at up and over the 8 feet mark some get to over 12 foot from what I have heard but I have personally seen quite a few 8 and 9 footers. they really are a great snake but if size is an issue like one of the above posts blonde maccies are agreat snake for size and if you look into it there r many variations in colour and pattern and they don't have the hefty price tag like the BHP's and Womas.

jungles can quieten down pretty quick . i was actually kind of disapointed that my yearling i purchased quietened down so quickly :lol:

Get an olive there beautiful. i have a 7 foot gil. But they do grow up to 14 foot and the size of a football.

Why not a second pair of Darwins. That way you can rest one female each year and breed with the other the next year. You'll have them breed every year without jeopardising the health of one female. Best results come from 'gentle' breeding.
