Cool. Temptation looms over me now ;D

Yep Coastals are a morph of the Coastal carpet python. Coastal do have the potential to hit 8-9ft yep but they take a long time (5 plus years) to reach any decent size. They are certainly not as fast growing as a Burm or Retic! Slow and steady is how these guys grow over the years.

Jaguars have the same care as coastals, right?
So I'd end up with a pretty big snake.. I think.. xD

A corn snake is a good beginner snake and a Jungle carpet is a little trickier with its habit of biting, being semi-arboreal etc. so you've got a good range there already. I wouldn't think of it as being on different levels, rather just what you want and like. As a carpet python addict I'd have to say go down the morph route and get a Jaguar carpet

Could you recommend a few snakes a level up from where I am or just plain awesome ones? So far only a corn and a jungle carpet python.

I keep Aussie pythons - mainly carpet pythons but a few other things as well - and also dwarf boas. I've kept most things in the past but about 5 years ago decided to focus on the snakes I was most passionate about - and its much more rewarding IMO.

What all reptiles do you keep btw? You should make albums.

Ha, not ready for a coastal, not yet

For a breeder to ship snakes to me yep it costs a lot - so it makes sense to go get the snakes yourself when you can.

I bred my Sonoran Desert Dwarf boas this year (have a few females left) and have 31 eggs in the incubator from breeding my Jaguar carpet to my big female Coastal carpet, they're due to hatch at the end of the month.

Selling any of your astonishing pythons by any chance?
