    Black pastels
    New twins :) male and female bought them from Sally and Don Shores at shorenuffreptiles.
    I was very pleased with the service and even more please with the snakes!
    One thing i did not like though is the box did not indicate that it had a reptile in it, not one sticker on the entire box that said "Live Reptile" or even hinted that it was , could have been a small lamp for all they know it. Just thought I'd share.
    Also, The new rack is almost finished, I should have pics of it up sometime this week!

    They look wonderful! Great examples of the morph!:gj:

    I believe according to the Lacey Act the box must be labled as "wildlife" or "harmless live reptiles".
    If a shipping company found out it was not labled as such I suppose the shipper could get in trouble? I'm not sure, I've just always marked my boxes as such.

    Very good looking pair.
    The Shores have some really nice stuff, though I am a little surprised on the shipping.

    Well it said live harmless reptile as
    soon as you opened up the box, written on a piece of paper but nowhere on the outside.

    P.S. Thanks for the replies.

    As far as I know that's exactly how it's supposed to be done. The note about the harmless reptile is inside the box because the carrier has every right to open the box. I just got a delivery from BHB Reptiles exactly like that, and I'm sure they know how to ship correctly. The box does say "perishable handle with care" the box is from Ship Your Reptiles, that's how every delivery I have had came.

    Edit: I take that back, some states have different rules and require you to put "wildlife" on the outside of the box.
