My new corn snake arrived this morning, and he is sooooo cute!! And yes, he definitely looks more like a Scout than a Chester. He made the long trip from MD to CA just fine, despite a terrible storm here & a stupid UPS driver who tried to leave him sideways under the doormat (when it took a minute for me to answer) - in the pouring rain, nonetheless.

Anyway, please welcome Scout, a baby male Aztec Reverse Okeetee. Didn't want to stress him anymore with a photo shoot, so here are just a few quick shots... he was a little skittish coming out of the box, but seems cool with his new habitat so far.











And here's the CLEARLY marked box, which the delivery driver somehow thought was okay to leave sideways in the rain... without a signature.
