Zebra Jungle Carpet Pythons at AAR

Zebra Jungle Carpet Pythons (Morelia spilotes cheynei)

With a crazy busy pinstripe pattern and nice jungle carpet python yellow and black bold contrast, the Zebra is a eye-popping pattern morph of the jungle carpet python. The zebra mutation is passed on in a "co-dominant" manner, so breeding a zebra to a normal jungle results in approximately half zebra jungle carpets and half normal jungle carpet pythons. Breeding two zebra jungle carpets together results in some of the offspring that are patternless supers. We aquired one of the first zebras, which was imported into the United States in 2008. We have named our zebra Grevy (as suggested by our friend Jeremy), after a type of zebra (the equine kind). This should be a great project! GET ADDICTED!

Closeup of Grevy, our zebra jungle carpet python	The contrast really pops on the white background	Can't get enough of this guy	He has a great neck and head pattern
