So i've been waiting all week for my 2013 pastel ball python to get here. She is my first snake ever, including holding one, or anything. When fedex lady dropped her off I had a short panic like - what am i doing i just bought a snake! But I opened up the package and the bag and got it open and there she was. I put her on the bed and gathered some courage to pet her, and she didn't tense up much. But she took off in a hurry and i was scared to pick her up cause the babies bite more or so i'm told. She was cruising pretty fast too! She went straight to my pillow and hid under as you can see in the pic. But finally I decided to stroke her twice and then pick her up. Once I got her in my hand I calmed down but I have to say its intimidating when you get a snake the first time and they are legit staring you down. I put her in the cage after that and she is climbing everything. I hope she finds a good home and we warm up to each other. Decided to name her Electra since she is a pastel and the yellow is enhanced, and because she is a pretty speedy thing
