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.

One Time Shipment
Any advice for a one time shipment for a Braz. Rainbow from Phoenix to Providence RI? I do not want to set up my own Fed ex acct.

Do you have any herp societies close to you?
If so try them, you might find someone nice enough to ship for you.
Good luck.

You can contact US Airways. They accept cold blooded, non-venomous, animals and you do not need to go through any certification process. The cost would be approximately $100 plus the cost of whatever insurance you want. Also, they will only ship on their dedicated flights and not on any contract flights. This means it will need to be dropped off and picked up only at a major airport and flight options will be limited. Not cost effective for someone who regularly ships but for a 1 time shipment, it is an option. Just be sure to leave the package open at check-in for inspection.

just got off the phone with US Air and they do not ship live animals in cargo anymore. They stopped Oct. 1, 2005. Any more options?

I just checked their site. It appears that they now only accept reptiles on international flights. Sorry.

Delta always used to ship reptiles in cargo, without any special requirements of the shipper. The biggest problem with Delta Cargo vs D-Dash is that sometimes packages get bumped, so you cannot guarantee arrival times. Of course, I have not used Cargo in several years, so this may no longer be the case.
Another option would be to locate a dealer, shop, or local breeder that might be willing to ship for you (with reimbursement for materials, of course)
