Help allay my fears of getting a ball python shipped to me.

I doubt her heat packs are going to last another night.

All of this crap because the shipping label came off of the box... a label that Fedex put on there, not the seller.

Oh Fedex :mad: :colbert:
This is why I've been trying to find local breeders, but I haven't found many in Southern California yet :/ I would only have a snake shipped if I purchased from a company/breeder that is well known and has many positive reviews, as well as a description of their shipping methods.

Cold, but alive ;)

Oh congratz! Glad 2/3 turned out ok!

Ditto.

I've never had a problem with a snake being shipped to me, but if you're able to it's always best to wait for warmer weather.

I've had both of mine shipped to me, and have had my Salamander shipped also.

Everything turned out okay, the salamander was shipped during winter and they forgot to put in a heat pack so he was almost frozen but he will be 3 this November and is going strong.

Both snakes shipped out and arrived on time healthy and the boxes still warm from the heat packs (I live in Alaska).

ive had 2 snakes shiped to me together and both are alive the only problem is that they have a bad attitude but probobly not from the shipping;)

I'm finally getting my first shipped ball python tomorrow! :banana: I'll update with details once it gets in. *Fingers are crossed*
