Blogging from A to Z April Challenge: J is for Jungle Carpet Python

 

Today's letter in the A to Z April Challenge is J. My reptile of the day is the Jungle Carpet Python, Morelia Spilota Cheynei


Picture by Mike Spain

The picture above is one of my personal snakes and is a Jungle Carpet Python. My snake is captive bred and was hatched in Maryland. In the wild Jungle Carpet Pythons are native to the rainforests of Queensland Australia.

Female carpet pythons tend to grow bigger than males. Jungle Carpet Pythons are considered medium size python and average 5 to 7 feet.
