    that's no bueno, but i'd wait a good 24hrs before your jimmies start to rustle. and remember it's the start of the weekend so if you don't hear from them today, they might wait until monday. EDIT: maybe check their hours on their site or FB just so you know.

    tbh, i've purchased 5 snakes from 5 different (highly reputable) breeders and i've never waited more than a few hours for a response, but some were better than others.

    his shipping is delayed until the 9th due to cold weather anyways so im also thinking he might not be checking emails due to that either, but everyone ive seen said hes an amazing guy to work with and really helpful. i just asked the basic questions like weight, how many unscented feedings theyve had, and temperament since i cant see them myself

    I haven't heard about or researched any further info on them. And Why not?

    they all seem to be eating fairly consistently, with the Hypo female readily eating off of tongs. i wouldn't go for the double het Hypo Albino as i don't think you're going to be breeding any time soon, but it's up to your tastes to decide.
