Axanthic Zebra
The Axanthic Zebra combines the recessive Axanthic mutation with the intermediately inherited Zebra pattern from Jungle Carpet Pythons (M. s. cheynei). The Axanthic removes yellow pigmentation, pushing the Zebra's natural contrast to its extreme: crisp black banding on a clean silver-grey ground.
This is among the most graphically striking carpet python combinations. The super form – an Axanthic Super Zebra – produces a near-patternless uniform silver-grey animal. This is a documented subspecies cross.
At StarPythons, we work with both Coastal and Papuan Axanthic lines in combination with Zebra – the visual character varies slightly depending on which Axanthic background is used.
I couldn’t be happier with my experience working with Philip at StarPythons. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, professional, and exceeded my expectations. Importing two carpet pythons from Europe might sound stressful, but Philip made it incredibly easy and kept me informed every step of the way. Both animals arrived safely, right on schedule, and in excellent condition. You can immediately tell they were well cared for, alert, healthy, and exactly as described. It’s clear that Philip takes pride in the quality of his animals and the service he provides. If you’re considering adding to your collection, especially through an import, I highly recommend StarPythons. This was a five-star experience all around, and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Philip again.
