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.

FEDEX overnight...usually works without a problem. Remember put a heat pad in the box wrapped with a thin amount of paper. Also put newspapre shreads in box and make sure the box is lined with styrofoam. Your best bet is use the box they came in. I use FEDEX overnight Priorty.......Thanks

Make sure you buy a box that says perishable goods. your better off buying a factory marked box then your own marked box

Well hope that helps with any packing problems. We ship mainly geckos and not nearly as many snakes. Shipping snakes without being in violation of a company's policies can be a whole different can of worms. As far as I know Delta Dash is the only really 'legitamate' way to ship snakes.

Shipping
Its been a couple of years since the post on it but UPS used to have a clause of not continuing the shipment if an employee deemed to do so and it was up to the shipper to retrieve the animal . I've usd UPS a few times with no probs but can't get the local FedEx guys to touch a box with snakes in it. The Post Office will ship animals but not snakes . They'll ship a 2 ft alligator but not a baby BP(Go Figure).
