coastal can get quite big i think my one is 8 foot ish i think they can get to 10ft but not sure!!! u can spend for 50-120 for baby but it really depends on the snake how good it is but i have got a female to go with my male for 130 and shes bigger than my male!

there a great snake and very easy to handly the first years the wost cost they just want food all the time but if u put them time in u get a great snake at the end

jcp is the yellow one and cp is other

Coastals are the largest carpets, and females can reach 10ft ish. But they are quite slender compared with a similar sized burmese for example. Jungles are quite a bit smaller. They are semi-arboreal and love to perch on a branch

Dead easy to care for, but some have a reputation for being nippy and they can be intimidating because of their size. 1 of mine is a bit fast, but the other 4 are fine, and they'll all get better as I handle them.

This is an excellent caresheet

Cheapest I've seen is 75 quid on here recently and up to 150 in petshops. A guaranteed pure coastal from a good breeder could be a bit more. You'll get addicted, like me

I have a costal carpet shes about 6ft at the moment, been told females tend to get to about 9ft in captivity.

Males and females get big. I know a guy with a 9 foot male and a 8 foot female, still under 10 years old, so still plenty of time to grow! They are quite chunky and strong too, but no were as chunky as a Boa Constrictor of the same size for example.
