    Shipping nightmare has happy ending!

    After a harrowing few days (https://ball-pythons.net/forums/show...ipping-stories), our new Dumeril's boa arrived safe and sound late this morning.

    Guys, meet Memphis, named for her time stuck in FedEx purgatory, lol.

    As soon as I learned about Dumeril's boas I was like, that is my spirit animal.

    I am so excited to have her, and from what little I've seen of her this far, she seems absolutely amazing. Not skittish at all, very inquisitive and docile. Now here's to the long wait before I handle her again. Need to let her decompress from her long and stressful journey.

    Congrats on you new little beauty! Memphis is fitting name.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Thanks everyone! Hopefully I'll have some better photos after she settles in and eats a couple times. The picture really doesn't do her justice.
