DiamondxJungle at breeding size

charlesc84 · 11-29-12, 07:27 PM

So I think my male DiamondxJungle is at breeding size. He's almost 2 years old. Around 5 feet, not sure of the weight yet.I'll be checking his weight tomorrow... The snake isn't at home with me because of the storm. Hopefully I can get him home in the next few months. Anyway, I was thinking of getting a female Jungle to breed him with. That is if I can find one with really clean markings. Anyway here's a pic of him. I was wondering if anyone has a good recommendation as to what kind of female I should get.

He looks great. I would go with a jungle jag myself. Seeing as he isn't pure anyway and DJJ's look awesome!!

I may end up doing that, I'd like to do something that gets the most out of the Diamond influence.

If you like the diamond influence, you could try to find a nice high percentage diamond jungle to throw to him.

It looks like he may be going to a similarly colored Jungle!

I 2nd this.

Diamond X Jungles are good looking snakes, and you don't have to worry about neru issues that are associated with the Jag gene..

I was thinking about that, I have mixed feelings about Jags. I love the way they look, but I'm personally very turned off by the neurological issues. I also didn't realize that male carpets can be bred at a very small size... So technically the male I have could have been bred even if he was much smaller. He's about 2 years old now. So I guess its more correct to say hes at a good breeding age.
But anyway, the female I'm getting is a pure Jungle as far as I know, but its very clean and has lots of tipping.
