Yeah, they are hardy animals. UPS rescheduled 3 times, so I had my heart sink three times before the snake arrived. The seller was incredibly angry with them. When I received her, he was overjoyed about her still being alive. UPS will refund the shipping, since she arrived within a week's time and not next day. Every few days, the seller asks about how she's doing. He explained some of the more subtle symptoms that may hint at a respiratory problem, such as holding her head up against the glass, holding her mouth open, raspy breathing, and such. However, if there is more I need know, let me know. She appears to be healthy, but I do know that snakes can hide health problems from untrained eyes.
