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.

Winston...You be CRACKERS, my man! See, that's one of the few downsides of putting your real, full name on these threads...ya gotta BE CAREFUL what you say, or it MIGHT come back to bite you in the butt! The people here are absolutely correct...you can ONLY ship mammals ONE OF TWO WAYS!! ....PROPERLY PACKED, PAPERED AND LABELLED CARGO!, or ...STICK A STAMP ON THEIR BUTT AND GIVE THEM DIRECTIONS!! ....
Just a heads-up from ALL of us! ....Neil

I have had success in shipping via US Air before. I am not sure about their current policies but as of 12/01 they were excepting harmless reptiles (including snakes). The only drawback was that their service is only "counter to counter" unless you want to pay a small fortune.

I just shipped with US Air, the top service is called PDQ (package delivered quick) and it goes counter to counter. I wasn't a known shipper with them, the good thing is you don't have to be. You must leave the package open for them to inspect it, cost me $62.00 for about ten lbs. and they said that price is for up to 50 lbs.
The good thing is a runner takes it from the counter to the plane and someone else does the same at it's destination. You must go to the ticket counter (be respectful of other passengers fear of snakes when in the terminal, keep the box in a bag or covered) to pick up and drop off though. I didn't have to wait on line, (there was a two hour wait when I got there) they said go right to the counter and they took me right away. You can also write on the box live harmless reptiles because it's legal shipping which is a plus.
It was also a 45 min. layover with PDQ compared to 4 or 5 hour layovers with their cargo shipments and it rides in a pressurized, climate controlled cabin. I sent GTP babies from NJ to Fla and they arrived fine. I highly recommend it until we get some other methods worked out. I'm also on the waiting list for Delta Dash to come and inspect me, you get on a waiting list and they just come out and look at your facility to make sure you are actually breeding reptiles. They told me it's that easy to become a known shipper with them again, and yes it can be your house. Hope this helps.
