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.

Pack them in a styrofoam box with a chunck of dry ice. Be sure to leave a small escape hole for the CO2 that will be the result of the dry ice melting, elsewise you may have a slight explosion.

also it is advised to
wrap the dry ice in newspaper or something. I can't believe the price of dry ice these days. I use to work with dry ice in the frozen food business and we always extended it time wise with wrapping. It also is used to take out small pings in vehicles on the bodies. The last time I bought frozen mice was last year in Alpine Texas and it lasted for about 32 hours wrapped up. You can find it at Dairy Queens and most Wal-Marts super centers if there is no local dry ice or ice company around. Maybe even a White Castle hamburger joint since they ship their hamburgers by dry ice around the world. LOL !

Just be aware that some (all?) shippers consider it a declarable item, (Don't know if it is considered haz mat), but you have to list it and how many pounds is in the box.
