Hi Everyone

[user 36616]

I have just started with my first South Western Carpet. He is currently being a bit defensive, but hopefully we can become friends.

I don't know about becoming friends but it will learn to tolerate being handled. Welcome to APS.

Welcome to the forum nice to have you with us. You just cannot beat a Carpet.


Kindest regards

Hi & welcome to APS

+1 on some photos! I'm sure we would all love to see your guy!

Hi Toffer,
I don't know if friends would be the word for it...think of it a bit like being a parent! Sometimes they might love you, sometimes they might hate you, and sometimes they just want you to get out of their room.
It's a rewarding hobby nonetheless, welcome to APS.

hello and welcome
beautiful south western i like that stripe down its neck

 

[user 36616]

She is a bit nippier than I would like. Hopefully she settles down. She is being antisocial of late. She hasn't been out of her hide for 3 days.

 

[user 30368]

being a SWCP, i assume you are in W.A.? Where abouts did you get this carpet from? Its a pretty little critter

 

[sharky]

Wow, she is gorgeous! I second what Nilesh said, that stripe is on her neck is cool

 

[user 36616]

Yes I'm in WA. My local breeder has an outlet in Pet Magic in Cannington. I picked her up from there.

Would that be Matt?? He sells beautiful animals! I bought a stimi off him a few months ago. Stunning patterns on it
