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.

I am going to take it to the FedEX hub, as it is raining and hailing here today. I called them, and they told me to bring my contract, and that was all. I have to be out that way to make a vet run for the cat and alli snapper.
After which, I will talk to the kinko's people. My driver has been notifiied by my rep, and she said he was less than happy about it...so...that might mean the right side up is the upside down etc....
Thanks all!
Hunter

I drop my boxes off at a local Staples store that is around the corner from my house. They have never had a problem with it and they have a late pickup time so I drop off my boxed between 4:30 and 5 PM. I am not sure if they have a Fed Ex pickup or not, but I use UPS.

Heather,
It's really surprising that UPS will knowingly ship live reptiles. Do they know what's inside your packages?
Regards.

Is UPS not suppose to? I have received a boa from a very reputable company and they shipped UPS.

By policy, UPS does not accept snakes....and they are pretty strict about that - unless you are bringing them huge amounts of business, in which case they turn a blind eye

I have also received many animals from well-known breeders and dealers shipped through UPS.

So is it frowned upon using UPS or just kind of accepted that hey if they take and deliver it that is good enough for me.

If you are declaring the contents, and appropriately labeling the package, and they accept it - you're lucky. But just because it is accepted doesn't mean it will be delivered: This was taken directly off their Shipping Live Animals page:

In the event a package containing a prohibited item is found en route or in the UPS system, that package will be stopped at the location or UPS facility of the discovery. UPS reserves the right to dispose of the package.
