    Two New Girls - DU Warning

    Just got two new girls today from Will Bird. Pandora is gorgeous! She came out of the bag as if shipping is old hat to her. "Hey there, who are you? Aren't I gorgeous?" She weighed 320 grams. She's very laid back!

    Skye stayed curled in a ball going "Please don't eat me!!!!" She's 228 grams. But she does have a little attitude - although I really think it's fear. When she had enough of the photo session - she started striking at me, so I tucked her away in her tub for her week of acclimation.

    Thank goodness I've got others to handle when the "I want to hold" itch needs scratching! LOL

    Pandora









    Skye







    That last photo of Skye was right before she did her darndest to tag me to let me know she'd had just about enough of this nonsense!

    Edit: I was talking to Jo and I was telling her that I noticed right before Skye would strike, she'd start waving the tip of her tail back and forth very rapidly, sort of like she thought she was a rattler. Has anyone else observed this with their snakes right before a strike? She's my first "striking" snake.

    Oh, and I want to send a special thanks to my "West Coast" friend Cassie, for keeping vigil on the UPS website last night. What time did they finally show up online, Cassie? 11 at night your time? So 2 in the morning here - well past my bedtime!
