Re: Anxiously waiting!

I was about to make heads roll. I was yelling and crying and really really pissed. I was just picturing these tiny, scared little guys lost somewhere in Atlanta, maybe lying on a runway and it was devastating. I screamed at the Delta lady on the phone, I yelled at anyone who wasn't being particularly nice and helpful.

I'm just glad that it worked out in the end. It's going to be a loooonnnggg time before I trust a shipment with Delta again. Jeez.

They seem to be settling in well and are active and alert. I'm going to try to feed them tonight, not sure if they will take f/t but hopefully they do.

Re: Anxiously waiting!

They all ate!!! I gave them pinks because I didn't want to stuff a huge prey item into them. They each had 2 good-sized mouse pinks and took them with gusto. That's a huge weight off my shoulders- I'm always a tad nervous until new snakes feed.

Re: Anxiously waiting!

They're farm-raised babies. I guess they'd be considered CBB, as they were bred in captivity, but farm-raised means they were bred on an outdoor farm in Africa.

Re: Anxiously waiting!

They are indeed gorgeous snakes and quite possibly my favorite venomous snake of all. You have such a beautiful collection of snakes that most of us will never have, please keep us in photos as they grow up.
