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.

Do you need to be Fedex Certified to ship live worms?
As the title states do you need to be FedEx Certified to ship live worms? USPS has been great most of the time for me but the few times they haven't been are unacceptable to me. I wish to switch to FedEx.

as far as i know you don't have to be certified to ship worms , cause i dont think they are covered under the lacey act in any way .. and when i got certified i didn't see anything on the list that pertained to worms .. but i would if i were you double check on their website ..

It would probably be a lot cheaper to send them through the mail.

The down side to USPS priority mail is 2-3 days in most cases. However its not a guaranteed service. So it could take a week which has happened before. Also they do not offer tracking.

Charlie,
You should be able to pay an extra fee for confirmation on USPS packaging. the difference when tracking by USPS, it doesnt give you step by step notes as to where your package is.

thats the problem its nothing more than a delivery confirmation number i do add that. But most time they only bother to scan it when it is about to be delivered which is unreliable since you never know when the package will be delivered. I'm going to switch to FedEx for sure since you know exactly which day it will be delivered. Just didn't know if i needed anything special for shipping worms. Thanks everyone for the response.
