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.
