Hey, My name is Jon Ashley.I recently bought a Irian Jayra from Bob Futo. This is a beautiful snake. I would like to know if anyone has bought from Tim at reptilesforsale.com. He has a 4 yearold female carpet/diamond cross he will sell me ,but no picture.How much would you pay? I posted a picture of my new Ij.He is a yearling.What do you think?

It just has really bright yellow, much brighter than most IJs. Oh, and I wouldn't pay anything for a carpet if I couldn't see pics first.

Yes, Now he needs a yellow girl!
I emailed Tim again about sending a picture. He wants 350$ for her.That sounds like a good price, but I told him that $350 is a lot of money to spend on a blind date. Ill see if he sends a picture , then I'll post it for feedback.

Very nice IJ. It's nice to see some variety creeping into the group over the last couple of years without people naming their "morphs" and deciding they're worth tons of wonga.

Re' the other snake, $350 is a lot more money than I'd ever pay for a cross, let alone one I hadn't seen (I'll admit that I'm personally not that keen on crosses, though, so take my opinion for what it's worth).
If the guy won't send a pic' then walk away. You'd be mad to do anything else at that price.

And $350 would get you a gorgeous partner for your IJ.

Thanks, You are a diamond purest? Some of the crosses Ive seen are beautiful,rivaling the pure diamonds. I will eventually have a pair of both. My buddy bought a female Ij from the same clutch as mine. We will be breeding them, but he gets all the egg fun. Bob Futo told me that he got a mutated baby from this same clutch. He didnt elaborate. Ive tried to contact him via e-mail but I haven't gotten a reply.

Yes I belive it is an Ij. But ,I am sort of new to this type of python. I didnt even know they hatched out red. Sometimes, when I see a picture of a Jungle I think "What the helll, that looks just like my Ij!". But Ive noticed a difference in patern. Anyway Im quite convinced this is an Ij.here is another picture.
