Am I just impatient?

[JOsborn]

Alright, I've got my bin, my thermometer, my hideboxes are in the mail, as well as my thermostat and UTH. My snake is ready whenever I send the money. I get my paycheck this weekend i believe. My stuff wont get here until mid-late next week. WHAT DO I DO IN THE DOWNTIME??? It's not like I have another snake to handle while I'm waiting, it's my first one. Just a normal, but seriously, how do you guys deal with this waiting game?!

Read forums That's what I'm doing lol. For the next month until I can get my paws on my first baby. I know how you feel though.. the wait is agonizing

Lol yeah I remember back in the day when I was the same way. There is a lot of stuff to do. Read up on everything you could want to know on here, ask questions, go to pet stores and see/handle other animals... get on youtube and watch ALL of Ralph Davis's posts! This should help keep you occupied for a while! Also, a few other pages I would recommend on youtube would be SnakeBytes TV, Freakiefrog, Playballp, and if you just want a great channel to watch HISHEdotcom is a great way to pass time!!!

I hope this helps

If you have a local reptile show, those are great for feeding the addiction!

Don't feel bad, even us old pro's get the itch when we are waiting on a new arrival. Most of us do anyway.

I just got mine a little over a month ago, and the whole month before hand I was having anxiety attacks I swear from not wanting to wait lol. But as they are saying, I just read and fed myself knowledge about ball pythons. I still have a few questions here and there sure, but who doesn't??!! Anyway, I have found this site and Google were my best friends while waiting to get my baby BP!!!!
