What sort of Carpet

[snakeasaurus]

I bought this fella about a year ago, he was advertised as a Vic. He aint all Vic though as you can see, I was thinking maybe Vic/Jungle hybrid. Any thoughts people?

Looks like an MD/Jungle. Nice snake though, post some more pics.

Patern looks like an MD :? You never know it could just be a MD with unuasual colours.

 

[snakeasaurus]

When you say it's a "Vic" do you mean an Imbricata? I haven't seen many but the ones I have seen have had similar markings to yours.

 

[snakeasaurus]

Yeah Greebo. Imbricata, only I have a couple more and they look nothin like this one. The pics do no justice for him, he's brilliant black & white with faint yellow dorsal patterns.

 

[snakeasaurus]

Hang on isnt Imbricata a western and Metcalfei a M/D? If so he's metcalf.

 

[pugsly]

Either way he is GORGEOUS!!

Hang on isnt Imbricata a western and Metcalfei a M/D? If so he's metcalf.

The Morelia spilota imbricata is from wester australia, and the metcalfei is from south australia, victoria and new south wales.

Whatever it is, it is a fine looking snake IMO.

And south west Qld

 

[snakeasaurus]

Thanks guys. I was hopin to breed with him this year but the female is still about a year off.

 

[Greebo]

That's why I asked. Not all Metcalfei are Murray Darlings. MDs are only a locality form of Metcalfei. So that is a Victorian form of Metcalfei then? Makes sense to me, the metcalfei around here look nothing like MDs.
Or lets just call it an Inland python.....

 

[craig.a.c]

Post some pics of your other snakes. I would love to see them.

 

[snakeasaurus]

I've seen a few M/D's,Inlands & Westerns but never anything like him. Thats why I snapped him up (plus the fact $150 for a 6' M/D is a steal)

 

[snakeasaurus]

Heres the big fella, bout 16' of male Scrubby (never bitten) YET....
will post more later when get a chance Craig.
