    How long should Shipping be?

    Now that i've figured out how i'm going to ship my animal, I need to know the amount of time I should use. Should i pay 90$ to overnight it or spend 45$ to get two day?

    Overnight. Shipping anything longer is unethical and increases the chance of something going wrong.

    Never ship 2 day. First off you risk the animal second FedEx requires overnight on live
    Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.

    When using ship your reptiles you are printing a label to ise with Fedex which will save you money on regular Fedex rate.

    You cannot use FedEx directly if you are not certified to ship with Fedex, by using Ship your reptiles you do not need to be certified.

    Shipping overnight with the BPnet40 discount code to save 40% will be the cheapest option for your first shipment. And after your initial shipment, if you need to ship more snakes SYR has better rates than FedEx with the added bonus of not having to go through the certification process (as has been mentioned). You can also contact SYR customer service to get set up with a custom rate if you will be shipping more in the future. They offer very competitive rates.

    I will definitely be doing ship your reptiles! I used the calculator and its only going to cost me about 90$ with the 40% off code, so thats good!
