You picked a great guy to talk about carpets! Clay is a great guy

I think perhaps using "morelia" species may be a bit of a better description for this.
While the video touched on Jungles and Diamonds, theres also Coastals, Darwins, Murray Darlings, South West and Bredli; all lumped as carpet pythons, but each living in different locations in Australia

[MFCM]

The one of most overlooked “carpets” now separate species is Morelia Bredli. They are even less popular in hobby but they are bulletproof as they can tolerate huge temp swings and being from mostly arid area of central Australia and as adults they are puppy dogs. Just babies has a bit more of a temper but calm down nicely with age❤
Had a few just as a pets and they are an awsome animals to be around
The only downside is just a verry few morphs. But I’m more of a locality/natural looks guy so no problem for me

Carpets are one of my favorite snake species. We love out female Jungle! Such a joy to watch and interact with. Great video!!!

[omuerta]

The BEST pets... whata great species of snake.. colors and morphs for everyone.. variable sizes.. easy to keep and very rewarding to tame down.

[PHTAT]

The answer is YES! Carpets are amazing once you accept that some of them may start out a bit nippy. A Jungle was my first Python was payment working for my sister's pet shop when I was 16 and that was 24 years ago. Now the more accurate reason behind it being a grate pet is most due to the fact they are more on the arboreal side of snake world. If you want to hold your snake for a while these guys are basically made for it and with age they calm down and will just chill out with you. Another reason if you are keeping them as pet only with no interest in breeding, they are perfectly happy without any sort of heat cycling. Last little thing about them is the shear diversity in beauty they are found in even without morphs.

It was interesting how his enclosures went from minimalistic to Bio Active. Very clean and his animals are Beautimous. Thanks for taking us along!

Haven't even finished the video yet and hell yes they are lol

[cannedcobras]

Just got back from my local expo, only one carpet python in the entire building lol She was very pretty

[prettymagic]

Carpet pythons are absolutely amazing i have so many and love them all they are so misunderstood

[WarfelsMorphs]

I keep and breed carpets as well and I think they make great pets! Some as hatchlings may be a little feisty but with work and time they come out of that and are the coolest snake that I've bred and kept. Truly amazing and their beauty is unmatched in my opinion. Keep up the great content Dav.

Those enclosures look sad. I wouldn’t want to spend my entire life in a white room with just a bed and the Bare Necessities

[dustinworrell]

I picked up a jungle from Clay a couple months ago, healthy good looking girl that should be in some fresh skin in the next couple days 👍

[clistiarobinson]

Carpet pythons are stunning and I wish I could get one but not enough money or room. Great vlog today. Have an amazing weekend dāv

[celtzen]

What beautiful snakes - absolutely love the sky hides!

[theilluminati]

Personally I dislike barren, sterile-looking enclosures and might just be my brain humanizing the snakes too much but really we don't know what they are thinking. But even though there isn't enough branches, leaves and colour for my liking I still applaud this person for keeping his collection in a proper sized enclosure with uv, heat, and different hide and perch options instead of rack systems.

Carpets are the best kept secret of the hobby. I truly believe they are one of the best snakes you can keep. More interactive but at a manageable size. Amazing amazing animals

[ArcStriker]

Great timing on this video, I happened to visit DFW Reptarium today for the first time and they have a gorgeous juvenile. Definitely very interested in picking one of these up at at some point. Thank you for your excellent content Dav.

[ThePassionOfTheMarc]

I used to have a Irian Jaya Carpet Python about 20 years ago. Was like keeping a smaller Red Tailed Boa. So chill. I miss that snake.

Carpets are the best pet snakes 🐍 , perfect size, semi arboreal, usually out on display, super awesome !
