I remember back when coastal (or Queensland) carpets were considered
the ugly carpet pythons. My, how times have changed. Coastals and
Queensland type carpets have turned out to be some of the most variable and
beautiful of all the carpet pythons. Of course, quality varies tremendously and
it pays to do your homework before you buy.
My main focus with this
group is to selectively breed a wide variety of unusually marked and colored
coastals by breeding specific colors and patterns together. Examples of such
projects include the red phase Tigers
and "High Contrast" Tigers produced here
in 2006.
Coastal
Carpet Photos
Below is a small sampling of the M.s. mcdowelli type carpets that
I'm working with. I have dozens of animals not pictured here, but this should
give you an idea of the quality and variety now available with the subspecies.

Various
Morphs
As you probably noticed above, my coastal projects
include a number of different mutations, including several forms of genetic
striping as well as Jaguars and some unproven morphs.
