Shipping Reptile & calling all MA people

[PrioBull]

I apologize if this subject has been covered many times and I did used the search. I found many useful treads and I learned lot and much more confidence of shipping my reptile across the country. But it don't seem to answer some of my biggest question. I am shipping my year and half old snake to myself from Utah to MA. I am moving there temporary, hoping permanently due a several job search. What I need to ask, is that I need to figure out that do I need a heat pack or cold pack, I am hoping I don't need neither since it will be 2 day ship. I discovered shipyourreptiles.com way too late and I am kicking myself in the ass but I need to ship my snake this Monday and I am flying out on Tuesday. Hope you guys can help me with this one.

Now, I am calling out to all MA herps people hoping I can make new friends. I would love to meet you guys, see your collections and talk about snakes over some good brews (beers! )

Also do anybody got any old 20L tank that I could put it in a good use? I could buy it from you or take it as a gift haha. I am leaving my tank back here at home, in hope of acquiring a albino later this year or next year Plus shipping the tank is too much work.

Thanks guys, hope you can reply quickly.

it will be 2 day ship.

Not sure what you mean by that but live reptiles MUST ship Next Day Air.

I am moving to Acton then might later be moving to a condo somewhere in Andover, I know it is just east of Lowell and south of Lawrence. Quite a bit of drive to Springfield but closer to NERD.

I just thought it would be 2 day ship but next day air? I am fine with that, as long my snake arrive safely and okay.

Hey, I live in Mass around the Fitchburg/Leominster area.
I am setting up a tub now, so I hopefully won't need my 20L tank in maybe a week or so.
