Thinking about a BRB - Advice?

[arpowell]

Yeah, it really depends on the temps where both you & the sender are- and some breeders/sellers won't ship in the winter (when it's really cold)- just safer for the snake to avoid it.

Absolutely reasonable. If the weather's still warm here and in the seller's area after the holiday shipping rush dies down (which I doubt), I might go for it, but honestly since we have an expo in my city every other month I'll probably just wait for February's expo. Frustrating not to come home with a snake today, sure, but it's worth it for a healthy snake!
