    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I have never shipped before, and would rather not, but someone has offered to buy my lizard and gecko collection if I ship them! My question is, is it okay to ship tokay, uromastyx, leachianus, and crested geckos, in the same box, if properly packaged and separated?
 
I'm sure that you can....the most important concern is what the temps. will be from the departure to the arrival. Your temps. in Ca. may be ideal to ship with little or no heat, but if it's going to a cold climate where the temps. would warrant heat packs, then it could be a problem. You would have to determine how many heat packs for the size of the actual package and be sure that they are warm enough if going to a colder area, but not too hot starting out in sunny Ca.
 
Betty... Have you shipped them yet... If you E-mail [email protected] I can give you a few pointers... I've shipped multiple species in the same box with no problems as long as they are secure in their seperate containers. As far as the temps... you would have to decide on a day when the temps are similar in both locations. I am in Florida and several times I've had to ship to cooler temps but with proper packaging they arrived safely!
 
No I still haven't shipped yet. I'm holding out for a little longer. I would much rather deliver local!
 
Thank you. I came into this hobby for the love of the animals, so I will care for them, until they are in the hands of their new "parents"
