Yeah, the shipment was originally scheduled to go out a day earlier. The vendor called me and said there would be a delay, because of flooding, and Memphis was a mess. I was fine with that. I said, don't ship until it is safe to do so, I'm not in any hurry. As long as the snake was waiting at the store, I wasn't concerned. I am concerned that the animal got stuck in Memphis heat (maybe in a temperature controlled bldg, maybe not) all day, and is still stuck in that box now.

If FedEx wasn't prepared to deal with a backlog, they should haven't taken the shipment.
I just hope it survives, and isn't suffering too much.
