    Here are a few pics of the bp I spoke about in my previously posted thread entiteld "Shipping." His name is Tom, and if things go according to plan he'll be joining Peanut here in VA all the way from CA within a month.
    (btw, the girl who owns him now has never shipped an animal. nor have i, so if someone could walk me through it step by step i'd be very appreciative.)

    Get a shipping box, of a moderate size. Line the inside with styrofoam, and package it tightly with newspaper for cushioning. Put the bp in a cloth bag, snake bag, and tie the end off. Two or three 48 hour heat packs should do.

    Mark the box live or fragile. Depending on the shipping company...

    Sounds simple enough. All I do is send the money for shipping. Her dad is helping her do it, she is 14 or 15. Very nice girl, very smart too.

    Howdy all!

    Thats how they shipped my babies to me, worked real nice. Make sure the heat pads she gets are chemically activated. There are ones out there that use your own body heat to work, well...most do that. So those will be absolutely useless. Make sure she gets the right brand.

    Nice bp, how old is he/she?

    She isn't positive about the age, but she says 2-3 years old.
