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.

Thanks a million!!!
Chris,
I wanted to thank you for the FEDEX contact. I just finished sending him an email stating I want to legally ship snakes. The local employees of FEDEX and UPS looked at me like I was on fire when mentioning this. It is amazing how these employees have no clue you can do this. Thanks again and I can not wait to hear from a rep!
Sincerely,
Todd Gustafson

Todd,
Great to hear the news! FedEx is really starting to react to the shipping needs of the reptile breeders...and it can only get better!

I just sent him an email to get myself setup and thanked him for his service to the herp trade. MILLIONS of dollars are being spent annually by herpers to ship animals across the country and around the world, why shouldn't they welcome us with open arms?

I'm still waiting on my rep to call me. Lenny supposedly forwarded my info to him / her and I'm now in the WAITING process.

Your rep better get with it...or you can request a different rep, I believe.
My rep called me back within two hours of emailing Lenny...
I have been thoroughly impressed with her from the beginning...as I stated she has NEVER certified anyone for reptile shipping...but has been on top of it from the beginning...and is very eager to learn the process...and has kept in constant contact with me every step of the way.

Greg,
Trust me. If Lenny says he forwarded your message...he forwarded your message. Here's what I would do...
I would email Lenny again and explain the situation. Tell him how your local FedEx rep seemingly avoids you. Mention that you have clients that need their animals shipped soon. (And you would like to ship via FedEx.) Ask if you may choose to work through a different, non-local FedEx representative...such as Lenny.
Let us know...

Just sent my box to package and design yesterday. Now for the wait. One good thing is that Lenny is my account rep since my rep never contacted me.

Lenny is your rep, too? Cool! He contacted me last week and asked if everything was going well for everyone. I told him there was one guy who was really against a wall. I said that Lenny forwarded his email to the appropriate rep, but the rep has still not responded. (Obviously I was talking about you and your slacker rep.) Lenny said he would take care of it right away.
I guess he did...
Good Things. Now you only have a few days until your package is approved and one more week to get the paperwork. You're on your way!
I told you Lenny was the BEST! =)

My box order showed up from U-Line like 3 weeks ago...just been too lazy to go pick up some styrofoam...LOL...
Have the testing application all filled out on my desk waiting to be sent... 
Hey...you did use the Package Design and Testing Account Number...so you can get your package shipped the D & D department for free, right?
The people at Design and Development said to ship it 2nd Day Service...if anyone wants the number (I had a HELL of a time getting it...I even was able to get it before my rep...hard to get ahold of the D & D people) PM me and I will be glad to give it to you...

Actually, Lenny shipped my test package himself. What service! LOL =)
I probably wouldn't give the account number out to anyone, though. It just seems a bit wrong to give out free account numbers. Who knows?
Chris =)
