Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Nick,
Your post will most likely be moved to the shipping forum as this is not the proper place for the thread.
Both UPS and Airborne ship reptiles. Airborne's policy states that they will ship Tortoises, and UPS's state that they will ship non venomous lizards. With Airborne you don't even need an account you can just go to your local office to ship. UPS on the other hand requires that you have an approved account for shipping reptiles and that you sign a notice waiving them of any responsibility of the animals if something happens to them in transit or because of their drivers. Fed ex's policy states that they DO NOT SHIP live animals, reptiles or anything else. There are however many people that ship through them as most the time your local Fed Ex manager can let it through. But in doing this your taking a chance that if someone down the road notices they can have the package confiscated and your customer will never receive it. I hope this helps you a little bit.

Don't bother calling FedEx. I did and their Live Animal Desk is only for zoo-to-zoo and horse shipping.
