Reptile & Amphibian Forums

Once I get back to the states in may I will be getting out of the military. I had reptiles growing up ( boas, blood pythons, and JCPs and a very large and angry Savannah monitor).since I will no longer be in the military I am wanting to get back into reptiles. I am wanting to get a pair of Jaguar Coastal Carpets(I love the ones with a high white color to them). If anyone could brief me a little on differences or advancements in husbandry over the last few years. It would be greatly appreciated.

thanks

Oh yea by few years I mean about the last decade its been a while.

The biggest difference you'll notice in the jags today is the price tag. If it's a pure coastal jag the husbandry is going to mimic a normal coastal. Cage size, diet, breeding, etc..

If you are really looking for a jag with a light base you might inquire and see if Mike Curtin is going to produce anymore ivory jags this year.

Those are the best pictures I could find. I've seen some more recent pictures of some of the clutch and they developed beautiful creamy white base colors.

You may check out www.moreliapythons.com as it's a more active morelia specific forum with quite a few members who breed jags.
