I've heard Michigan is down right balmy this time of year...

Any updates?

I got in touch with them and they say to hang on to it to see if anything changes, but now she isn't using the last quarter of her body.

I find it odd that they shipped in this weather that is going on up there.
I am sorry about you situation, especially being your first online/shipped animal.
I hope everything gets better.

I find it odd they shipped too, I've been waiting weeks for them to ship my order, they wanted to ship this week it's finally starting to warm up above freezing during the day but the scheudle didn't work out for anyone to be home, next week even looks warmer so I expect they will ship on Wed. home my order arrives alright. Sorry to hear about your snake I hope it turns out OK but not using part of it's body can't be good.

Any more updates? A good friend of mine works at BHB and I will definitely ask abut this but chances are that they won't know as they work in the colubrid room and Brian ships tons of animals every week. My main question to them will be what temps they ship in in terms of lows. I'm personally very surprised that they shipped if the high there was 21. What were temps on your end and where do you live?

Also surprised that the snake was shipped. Poor thing. I think Brian should be contacted to present his side. No reptile should be shipped in this weather even if the buyer demands it.

Brian and his employees stay away from forums like the plague to avoid being part of any drama, but that's not to say that we can't get his side of the story and share it here. I'll see what my friend has to say.

I live in Southern California, so I have no temp concerns here, I never had a snake shipped before so when my wife ordered her we both thought it was kind of cold in the mid West to ship, but the lady my wife talked to said Ya it would be fine. Brian from BHB is at a reptile show so I'm stuck till he gets back, in which case I'll have to ship her back, but I refuse to ship her back until it's safe to do so....There's no way I'd send her back if there's any chance she'd get worse..
