Congrats! This will be your favorite pet of all time. I remember when I purchased my first indigo...and 10 years later, the excitements hasn't waned with this animal. I now have 12 adult indigos and I would encourage you to ask questions here; like the other person said, there are some great folks here and we all love to help each other out (and newbies too).

>>Hello. I have never posted here, as I never thought I'd ever get an indigo, but luckily and thankfully I was able to acquire one. I'm still in shock. Just received her tonight. Wow wow wow!!! I'm so happy!
>>
>>She's an almost yearling female. Black phase. I had my choice between her and an larger, more whitish/reddish faced sister. I took the blackie! My b/f wanted the bigger female (he believes bigger is better), but I liked her.
>>
>>She's about three feet. What a beautiful snake. Little bit of musking and tail rattling. She wasn't handled much.
>>
>>I'm very excited, but also very nervous and scared. This is my first high dollar animal and I'm paranoid!
>>
>>What if she gets too cold? What if too hot? What if she gets out? OMG, I never worry about a corn this much. I know they're a bit delicate.
>>
>>Anyway, I'm not new to snakes, but this my first cribo and I am frightfully nervous with new species, especially one as important as an E. indigo.
