    My additions
    Got my shipment yesterday afternoon, been working 12 hours straight and slept for 2 hours. I'm so tired. Anyway, here're my latest friends.

    Oh yeah, and I got tagged by one 1,000ish grams ball...on the face just above my left eye. The snake just missed my eye ball by 1mm. I should have asked someone to take pic while I was still bleeding lol There's still a mark/bruise, so when my wife saw it this morning she freaked out and asked me to get rid of them all...yeah right.

    anyhoo, here're some of my addition '07s and '08

    When I first took this snake out, my friend said it's a normal lol People in Thailand think they stay gray, black, and white forever...I wish.

    White lipped (ball) python lol
    http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/h...on/spied-5.jpg

    Got her from you know who. He's a very nice guy to talk to as well. Funny thing is this white lipped python ;) is the first animals I ever get from him...after almost 3 years of talking. I think my first inquiry was about Albino or Pastel or something.

    Thanks guys.

    atp151415: I wish I have lot of money man. I got this snake from working hard and saving money over years. Yes, she's a Spider Pied.

    And here're the pics that I was dreaming to take. Pics are kind of dark though. I have no money left to buy a new light bulb.:oops:

    World's Lowest White(his name) vs White lipped (her name lol) I plan to breed them one day.

    Which carrier did the seller use to ship them to you? I'm sure they were in transit for a while! Very nice snakes, I especially like the spied and the g-stripe.

    Reptiles can be shipped internationally in a matter of hours if you time your drop off right.;)

    Shipping time depends on where it's shipped from/to.

    There's only one airline that will come to Bangkok from Miami. However, my shipment will have to stay in Taiwan for 12 hours till it can be shipped again to Bangkok. In total, it took my shipment 30+ hours till it get here.

    Never have problem with ball pythons of any size though, only small colubrids and amphibians.

    That is what I thought, I remember someone in Daytona years ago and they were shipping back to Bankok and they had to go through something similar. I'm sure they were thirsty, but otherwise look nice and healthy!

    I keep them all newcomers in separate tub on a different rack from my previous balls. However, still in the same room though...I wish I have a spare room though.

    It seemed to me like you put the new ones in with animals from your collection to take pics. No?

    only the pied yeah, I put the spied with him just to take quick pic. Now they're separated of course.

    Josh,

    The ball that striked me in the face is one of the nine subadult (almost)full stripe females I got from you man. Thanks lol

    My customers are very excited when they see your fancy balls.

    And I end up keeping that ball that almost blind me, no hard feeling...maybe I smell like rodent lol

    Will give you a call once I'm done with my next two non-CITES shipment in 4-6 weeks.

    Let's see, no quarantine procedures and pictures of snakes in a tub filled with urates and feces. Yeah, let's compliment him on some nice snakes. Disgusting...

    Re: My additions
    Didn't see that coming lol.

    First of all, I need to seperate my own ball into that tub while I was giving animals to people who order them. Like I said I work 12 hours straight, so I admit that I keep those new balls of mine together for 10 hours or more(of course the spied, spider het pied, and het pied were put in their own shoeboxes(is that the right word?)since I took them out of the delicup. Later I separate them in each individual tub right after my last customers/friends left my house. All of newcomers are in a different rack from my own animals. I put old & new together to take quick pic, they're together for no more than 5 mins top.

    Ordered animals were given to the peole who order in delicup/snakebag. I didn't take anything out and put together, not even one second.

    I don't want anyone to think of me as a greedy inconsiderate bastard who think of ball as money maker. I'm way far from that man.

    I'm not in my house at the mo, or else I can take a quick pic of how the snakes are kept. But then anyone can say I stage my ball setting. If you're going to the Daytona, we could have a quick chat man. Then you'll know that I'm not as bad as you might think.

    But again, I want to tell you that I did not have sex with that woman...I mean I admit that I kept them together for 10 hours :D And yeah, they're all in the same room(3 racks on 3 different side of the room though.)

    Thanks for your honest opinion man :)

    btw- yeah, they're saying the snakes are nice, but they all might think that the way I keep are disgusting :D

    I admit that it's wrong, but I can't spend hours taking care of my stuffs while there are 4 big boxes of animals were waiting for me to be unpacked(I paid close to $3,000 for the air frieght, fees and tax). The animals have been in the box for more than 2 days to get to my house.

    I will try to improve my way of working though, thanks again man.
