Jungle Carpet Pythons are extremly similar to the green tree python. What probably happened is during evolution, some decided to get up in the tree tops and develop to eating birds while others decided to stay lower and become more terrestrial. However they WILL climb a lot!

I think a 4x2x4 cage will be great, my only problem would be heating one that large.

Now to answer your question. What you do for green tree pythons cages is put some perches that run lengthwise. If you put that in there, they would be all over them. I wouldn't have done a ledge, personally. Try putting a 2x2 strip along the edge and wrap it in astroturf also, then put a bed of aspen or cypress or whatever over that to absorb the feces and such.

what i did for perches is take some 2" pvc and burned it with a cheapo propane torch and then screwed it in. thats what i'd do with you.
