She's in Vermont at the moment, visiting gandparents for the summer. And so, she really has no idea how she would possibly transport it home (we live in Oregon.) I'm not sure it's the best choice for a keeper - it's pretty aggressive and striking when they get too close to the cage.

I advised her to put some hidey things in there for the snake, so maybe it will calm down if it feels less stressed - but still I'm not optimistic about this being a good pet for a little girl - and even if it was... not sure how she'd go about getting it home - seems like more effort than it's worth.
