it was fully marked as accordance with fedex policy/lacey act. It stated:
Live Harmless reptiles
Do NOT expose to extreme temperatures
3 Eastern Box Turtles
Terrapene carolina carolina


I am verified with fedex, so i naturally mark everything...it can only help and its legal.

I shipped off 2 blazing blizzard leos today to Jonesboro Arkansas, with a 60 hr heatpack that had a 100 degree surface temp when leaving here (measured with a temp gun to be sure), so hopefully it works as planned.
Thanks,

Have you received any proof that they arrived DOA? I can't imagine how its remotely possible that the temperature dropped low enough to freeze them with 58 being the low. It doesn't add up.
