After nearly 30 years of wishing, he has arrived! He was ready for pick up at the airport around 8:30 this morning. I work until 3:00pm, but I couldn't stand it, so I took a long lunch and rushed over to get him and drop him off at my house. I love him already. He's in blue, but he's still a striking little fellow. He's actually a 2013 hatchling. I would have expected him to be a bit longer, but he's much thicker than other colubrids of his size. As soon as he settles in, I'll start feeding and putting some length on him. Anyway, I'm very pleased with the little guy. Can't wait til he's settled in.
A few crappy cell phone photos until I'm able to get the camera out.
The obligatory box opening photo:
My, what big, blue eyes you have!
