Thinking of getting an IJ

[adamofsound]

Hi,

I have been keeping lizards for years from all different climates, species and sizes.

Lately I have had the chance to handle a few snakes and really enjoyed them.... so after a few days of research, I think I would like an IJ

I was just wondering if anyone can direct me to a really good, detailed IJ specific caresheet. Everything I find is pretty general.

I have inquired about 2004 hatchlings IJ's from Hiss and Hers pythons, mainly becasue they were nearest breeder of these I could find, and i always like to be able to pick a breeders brain when acquring a new species.

also, if its not too much trouble, could I see some pics of IJ or JCP enclosures (and occupants if they get into the photo op!).

Cheers
Adam

Good choice, they're great little snakes.
Here's a couple links to some caresheets...

Hope this helps...

Hiss and Hers are great python breeders, and being great breeders, they themselves will be a wealth of great info. For sure. They know what they are doing and will be more than happy to help a customer make sure their first Carpet experience is a good one.

Here is a picture of my JCP in her enclosure, she is about 2 and a half months and is growing quite nicely.

In my opinion she will soon out grow this and from there I will be moving her to a 33g vivarium until she out grows that.
