    Shipping 3 ball pythons with SYR

    So I want to move my collection and I was wondering what size box and what containers (deli cup / bag) to use for my 3 bp's. Their weights are: 540g, 234g, and the third is probably less than 100g still.

    How would you do this? I know the smallest would fit a deli cup, and the largest wouldn't, but I'm not sure about the last one.

    Get two pillow cases and have them tied at the top. put the snakes in separate pillow cases. And if they are in medium boxes they should all fit. You might wan to use cardboard or something to divide the individual snakes in the bags so nobody gets smothered.

    The cup is useful because of it's emptiness

    So any ordinary pillow case for two of them? What about the last one?

    The box will be fine. The bag is a bit bigger than necessary for any of those.

    I would suggest a deli cup for the smallest, and you could either do larger delis for the other two, or small bags. Include some crumpled newspaper in the box to prevent them from sloshing around.
