I finally got my first shipped ball python! I had my doubts and asked for opinions in this thread: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...shipped-to-me. Here are some pics.

Box from Gulf Coast Reptiles:



Somewhere in there...



Snake bag:



2010 Male Hypo Black Pastel (about to shed):



I was surprised that they shipped him without a heat pack. He was a bit cold to the touch, but very responsive (tongue flicking), and was immediately exploring his tub.

Gulf Coast Reptiles was a pleasure to deal with, and the package arrived on time. I am very pleased with the snake, and have big plans for him. I'll get better pics when he's shed and settled in.
