About
Jungle Carpet Pythons are nonvenomous constrictor snakes found in the rainforests of Queensland, Australia.
Size
J's get 5-7 feet long as adults, though in the wild there have been specimens recorded over 8.5 feet long. Females tend to grow larger than males.
Diet
These snakes are carnivorous. In the wild they feed on small mammals and birds. In captivity they are most commonly fed mice, rats, or baby rabbits.
Temperament
These snakes can be nippy if not handled often. Usually hatchlings up to 1 year are aggressive as in the wild they are prey to just about everything, but they seem to calm down after that.
Reproduction
Jungle Carpet Pythons can produce up to 28 eggs per clutch with the average being around 14 eggs. Hatchlings emerge about 15 inches long.
Captive Care
Jungle Carpet Pythons can make good pets. I recommend this link if you are looking into buying one:
