    Congratulations Evan! I Hope he gets there safe and sound. I am pairing up my male pastel male with one of my het albino females this season. I probably should have bought a pastel het albino instead of trying to make 50% hets. Good luck with him.:)

    Watched his progress last night until about 2:00 a.m. He arrived in Memphis from Miami at 11:38 a.m. So I was staying up to watch the next step, but no. He didn't leave Memphis until 5:04 a.m. He arrived at the destination sort facility at 6:58 a.m. so i'm just wondering how much longer it will take to get him sorted and on his way to me. Hard to believe he's only 30 minutes away from me, they need to hurry up all this waiting is killing me :rolleyes:

    I get it now, they update progress about ten minutes after the event actually happened. Says he arrived in Knoxville, TN at the FedEx destination facility at 8:20 a.m. Won't be long now! :D

    Sounds exciting. I just got a pastel in the mail last week. It was UPS though. They came an hour earlier than the track said. And the delivery guy came in a delivery bicycle.......my poor snake....and to add to that, the delivery guy apparently can't read the big bold words on the box and proceeded to leave my package sideways........

    Hope you have a smarter guy than I did! Haha.

    Congrats on your new snake!

    Fed-ex Overnight priority guarantees shipments by 10:30 am unless you live in the boonies, makes me wonder why your tracking says by 4:30pm :confused:

    Pastel het albino...congrats :)

    I live in a small town with a population of 35-40k people and fed ex 10:30 guaranteed deliver is not guaranteed here. I live 5 blocks from the fed ex location here, and still dont get my overnight untill 4pm @ the earliest.... last summer in 110 degree weather I had a male pinstripe not show up untill 7... I was not a happy camper.

    Well I still don't have him. I've been told that my driver is in Greenback right now and depending how many other deliveries there are is when I should get him. But Greenback is not that big so it should only be another hour or so. At least my driver knows that it's a live snake and that it needs to be delivered A.S.A.P. :)

    Last fed ex shippment I got didn't get to me until 4:21 p.m. My first Pied and Het Pied pair. I can bet I was looking out the window every 2 minutes. They said it was delayed in Tenn. due to fog, but I was also tracking my order and it said the package was in Tampa at 6 a.m. that morning.

    The package finally got to me and everything was o.k.
