Jungle Carpet Python Shedding (HD)

Try watching this vid in HD ^^ This is my JCP (Jungle Carpet Python or Morelia Spilota Cheynei) shedding its skin. The little dude is a 5 foot male and will hopefully be getting a bigger terrarium/vivarium soon. And I've had him for over a year now but he still doesn't have a name...

would a 55 gallon tank be enough?

[baklap666]

a 55 gallon tank should be enough for a snake up to 5 feet i think.

If ultimately the length times the depth of the tank, (or maybe in the case of an arboreal snake the height) is the same as the length of your snake, it's usually a good size vivarium. There are loads of care sheets on this on the interweb. but yeah 55 gallon is fine up too 5 feet i'd say, if your snake is still a wee baby you might want to give him a smaller enclosure until he has grown a bit or it might stress out.

@baklap666 edit: I mean length PLUS the depth = equal to length snake is usually about right.. length x depth is ridiculous

Thanks ^^ You've got a nice snake collection dude, I've got 6 snakes, might post some more vids soon.. Daisy is really cute btw, guess she wasn't when you just got her huh? My male is as tame as can be, but he gets a different look in his eyes while feeding, not strange, but something I have to keep in mind ^^

I think a 55gallon tank would be big enough for a JCP. A good rule of thumb is whatever the snake's length is, it can generally do well in a tank that is half its length. Although with larger snakes such as the burms, retics, and anacondas, once they get a little bigger, tanks are really of no use to a 10 foot pissed off retic lol. Vision cages are another great choice for snakes. Jcp are medium sized snakes about 6 to 7 feet, but they are built very slender. Anyways nice looking snake.

Cada vez que veo mudar de piel a mi serpiente me quedo atónito, y eso que hace mas de 3 años que la tengo, que la he visto mudar de piel cientos de veces. It is a very very beautiful Spilota, I have a same of this.
