Look everyone! I've got my first Ball Python!

Not to mention my dog had no part in this. He was in our bedroom when they came over. (Where my snakes NEVER go. THATS for my mancave. )

Do you really think I should be worried about him bringing over the snakes? I washed my hands after with antibacterial soap. As did everyone else. Then I used Lysol for disinfection of the surfaces.

The dog part was a joke BUT on a serious note, I don't and wont take any of my hatchlings to peoples house. It opens them up to potential issues.

Ok so... Petco gave me a full refund and assured me that the snake would get the treatment it needs. (We can only hope.)


Now... What to name my new girl? Ive got a few in mind, maybe I'll start a poll Can I do that here?

Glad it worked out for ya! I hope it works out for the snake as well, but I don't have high hopes on that.
As for names... I'm sure you'll come up with something that represents her well

Whenever my wife and I first saw her, I pointed out that she had a very nice olive color to her pinstripe. My wife was like, 'Oliveeeeee, THAT should be her name!'

That is one of two that I am considering.

-Olive
&
-Pandora (WHICH I ABSOLUTELY LOVE! Reason being, she has a very reduced pattern on her sides. But, there are a few small 'sketches' of things like a little triangle, teardrop, and a trophy. But there is a perfect little, quarter-inch by quarter-inch box that is center mass on the side of her body in her pattern. [You know, like, 'Pandora's Box'] Like I said before, she just got here and I'm not disturbing her just yet. I will let her have her own alone time for a few days before I handle her and take pictures for you guys. You'll soon see!)

I like both ideas but love Olive. My rabbits name is Oliver
