    Talking First Unboxing Day Ever!

    Before I do anything, I want to say a HUGE thank you to Jeremy @ Fire Ball Reptiles. Any/all communications I've had with him over the past month have been very timely and courteous. Even today, before I could send him a note about my new girl's safe arrival, I had an email waiting from him to make sure that she had arrived safely. THANKS AGAIN, JEREMY!

    Now for the good stuff! I'd like to introduce you to my first ball python ever - a female pastel butter, tentatively named "Peanut" by my wife. I'm not a video person, so I hope you don't mind the next dozen or so unboxing pictures. Like I said to Jeremy in the email I sent him: "I’m sure people say this all the time, but she’s sooo much better looking in
    person!"

























    What a way to start an addiction!

    Eric

    She's lovely! Congrats on your first snake. And oh man seeing that box makes me itch to get another one. Nothing quit like stalking the window waiting for the UPS guy, see his horrified face when you tell him it's a ball python, and then the excitement of unpacking the box. I bet this is what drug addicts feel like..
