Uhhhhh... SUPRISE!! 
lol I kinda had an ADD impatient moment and accidently kinda... bought a baby okeetee today. LOL... i dunno if she chose me, she kinda slid out into the open when I was looking at the others. Her pattern was definately striking, or at least compared to her siblings. She was a little finicky but calmed down when she started licking me and knew I wasnt gonna hurt her. Now I have to type with one hand cause her favorite spot is coiled across as many fingers as possible on my right hand, which is good cause Im left handed. I couldnt get good pics, but her pattern is really pretty. He said she was a "red" so I dunno... I think shes an okeetee. Any ideas on names? If I get another at the show, Im getting a weird pattern and naming it Pandora. OMG it is so scary having to watch her all the time. Shes about as thin as a pencil so I looked down when she was in the sink and she was halfway down that hole near the top of the sink that lets water drain! It scared me so much!!
Of course you knew this was coming... What do you think?!

Hey,
She is Gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!
Great choice.
Yea, you’ve got to watch them. They want to hide in the dark areas of the house. And make sure you get the little deals to lock the lid on the tank, because they love to escape.
Congratulations!!!!!

LOL she just climbed to the top of the cage and shoved her head against it trying to lift it... Didnt work too well. Shes a lot more active that I thought, shes out in the open exploring and climbing on the fake ivy I put in her cage, probably getting used to her surroundings... Oh her cage is a 10 gallon acryllic cube sitting on my desk. Has a three in one hide, a log hide, a water dish, and the ivy. Paper towl on the bottom... uhh, havent taken temps yet. Its kinda tall but she seems really interested in climbing so... yeah... its approx. 12’’ by 12’’ by 16’’ (LWH) Its kinda weird... she almost looks like a coral or kingsnake from the top lol... Im a little worried about the temp gradient but I can always switch cages if I need to.
