    Yay!! Make sure to post some pics when you get your new pet. But after that it's important to refrain from handling while the snake acclimates to his/her new home.
    I suggest (especially for new keepers) keeping handling to a bare minimum until the snake has eaten three consecutive meals without refusal.
    I know it's tempting to want to spend time with your new pet, but you'll have 20+ years for that, and their health should be top priority.

    Good luck!! Keep us posted. And feel free to ask any questions you may have. We're happy to help.

    Also, read read read and read some more. The more we know about our pets, the better we can care for them
