Morelia spilota cheynei - Jungle Carpet Python
Jungle Carpet Pythons are probably the most popular Carpet Pythons. Their main habitat are the beautiful rain forests in north-eastern Queensland, roughly between Cairns and Townsville, but they also can be found in mangrove forests or even dunes, especially near to the rivers in the region. The ongoing forest clearing is a huge threat for the habitat of Jungle Carpet Pythons.
Due to the intense black and yellow coloration, especially in lineages like our "German Bloodline", Jungle Carpet Pythons are an inherent part of every Carpet Python collection, and with an average size of 6-7ft easy to handle.
If you are looking for some fresh blood for your breeding projects, or when you simply want to get your first Jungle Carpet Python, have a look at our shop section, we usually have very nice Jungle Carpet Pythons available!
