I traded a female crested gecko for this little orange ghost. Due to a bunch of "comedy of errors" situations, it took me over 2 weeks to get him to me. (NOT the trader's fault -- mostly FedEx being irritating). But I figured after all the chaos it took to get him, SNAFU was the most fitting name :)

Yeah, he never got stuck in the mail or anything -- the guy I was trading with packed him up properly, took him to his local FedEx, FedEx said "we don't ship reptiles!" and sent him home. Unboxed, tried agian the next day at a different FedEx -- got the same response. At this point, the heat pack was expired so he had to order more heat packs, then we didn't want to ship with Thanksgiving last week. So he was shipped out on Monday at yet a third fedex that finally let him through. It was kind of insane.
 
What does his name stand for???

Yea fedex can be troublesome, most of them don't take the reptiles and you have to go to a certain one that does. Sucks but in the end better for the animals I suppose as they generally get shipped out from that depot.

Pretty snalke btw!b :)

SNAFU stands for "Situation Normal: All (Fouled) Up" (or, a more explicit substitute for "fouled").
