Hey everyone,

I just bought this carpet from a local shop. It is currently feeding on f/t mice. He was just labeled as a carpet and didnt give any ssp/locale info. Any guesses to what this guy is? Also, what kind of humidity do they require?

Thanks,
Mike

I have:
0.1 Kankakee Bull
0.1 AZ king
1.0 Eastern Milksnake
0.0.1 Redbelly snake
0.0.1 Queen snake
0.2.1 Eastern Gartersnake
1.1 Western Fox snake
0.1 3-toe box turtle
4.6 Bearded Dragon (german giant, orange, red sandfire X yellow pastel, Citrus X yellow pastel, Sandfire X Gold)

Looks like a Jungle Carpet Python (morelia spilota cheyni). Im not exactly sure what the humidity requirement is (around 30-40%?).

If it helps this is a pic of my setup (which has enough humidity apparently)

0.1 Elaphe obsoleta obsoleta - Black Rat Snake
0.1 Leucistic Elaphe Obsoleta Linheimeri - Texas Ratsnake
1.1 Morelia Spilota Cheyni - Jungle Carpet Python

I would agree that that looks like a jungle type...but humidity should be more in the 50-60% range, and higher when in shed.

About that cage picture, what are the dimensions of that cage, and how big is it's inhabitant?
