sad news and a delay...

tim21087 Sep 26, 2007 07:40 PM

So I'm disappointed now. The breeder I am getting my JCP from is also a local pet shop. I went in today to pick up my new snake but found out that they had just this week changed their feeding schedule and he was just fed today. He was actually fed while I was still in class So despite being really excited all day I can't take him home until Friday. Just thought I'd let you guys know why there was a delay in the pictures I promised. Oh well two more days of waiting isn't that bad I guess.

Thank you,

Sorry to hear about the delay, that's no fun. I had to delay
shipment of my Indigo since shipment of my cage has been delayed.
But I should get it Friday as well.

Good luck and look forward to the pictures!

Thanks,
Ed

Yeah I was so excited and now I have to wait another two days. Waiting blows. I hope your cage arrives on time so you can get your snake too.

Thanks. I'll definitley get my snake tomorrow. I bought a big tub from Target as a backup just in case the cage doesn't arrive today.

What kind of enclosure do you have for your new JCP?

For now I've just got a screen top aquarium. I know it's not the best but I had an extra just laying around. As it grows I'll get a better cage for it but for now this one will do.

I was glad to read that your sad news wasn't something really bad. I feel for you as it kinda bites waiting for a new snake.

Phew, I thought it was worse, not that it sucks to have to wait...(remember how long I waited for the calico and anery babies)
