Hello from Chicago!

[IR_Slacker]

Just picked up my first ever snake, Ball Python "Bella", approx. 6 years old. I JUST finished moving her in, and have not yet set up her tank much because I want to let her settle in a bit to the new environment before making much commotion around her. I have never dealt with a snake, but I have had a Chinese Water Dragon and I am assuming the stress factor is similar.

I also have an Emperor scorp that I've had for about 2 months, who literally just gave birth yesterday.

Thank you all, hopefully the mods see all the posts I'm posting so I can get these pictures up! I also was wondering if there is any certain "break-in" time I should allow for her to stay put without me interrupting her before I try to handle?

As promised, here is Bella!
