Hi everyone,
This is my first time posting on this forum. I am thinking about getting an irian jaya carpet python in the near future. I have lizards and other pets, but this will be my first snake. I've been reading up caresheets, and i know i still have a lot more research to do, but i have a few quick questions.
How long does it usually take to reach its full size? and what is their growth rate?
I was planning on keeping it in a 10 gallon as a baby, then eventually upgrading to a 30, and then to a 60 breeder. But i just read that they do better in cloudy rubber containers so they dont get as stressed when they are younger. what size then, if i get the rubbermaid container? and how would i ventilate it?
Thanks for any replies, i'm still learning and I want to make sure i give my guy the best home possible. and if anyone knows of some good care sheets it would be appreciated =) Thanks!
