You have a valid point, and I really think that if you have that concern, that you should buy locally. Shipping is a definate stress, but it is a minor one. I don't know about most other breeders, but I absolutely care about my animals to a degree of neuroticism. I have people call me when the shipment arrives, e-mail a couple weeks later to make sure everything is okay, and basically make sure the transition is complete for the snake and the owner. It just depends on who you buy from...
