It's been about a year and 3 months since I brought home my first carpet python. Never have sorted out the sex, but on the presumption it's male we named him (?) Bogey.
Just a little thing back then, here's the baby pics, hanging on the edge of a 29 gallon tank:




Small enough to curl around fingers:




Now well over 3', and showing much brighter yellow. I've seen hundreds of carpet python pics online, but never any that look like this. The black scales "peppered" among the yellow are quite different:








Still just as mellow as can be, never defensive, much less aggressive. He's been a bit more active at night lately, so I'm thinking it's about time to move him from the 40 breeder into a 75 gallon tank. Still plenty of room to move around in the 40, but a 75 will allow more branches for climbing and a wider vertical temp gradient.
