    Deli cup Oz. Vs. ball python grams.

    I'm trying to order a few bulk batches of deli cups but I'm not sure what sizes to buy.
    How many oz deli cups do you guys use for different amounts of grams?

    None, to ship a BP it is best to ship in a bag, deli 6.75 inc get too small very fast and if you get a bigger cup you will need a larger box which will increase your cost and the cost of shipping.

    The standard is to ship BP in bags and small snakes and lizards in deli cups.

    Definitely. Colubrids are typically shipped in deli cups, and things like pythons and boas, in bags. For a ball python you need a very large cup which will need a very large box, which will cost a lot.

    It's not for shipping. I don't have a display case for an expo I'm attending in a few months and I am going to use large deli cups and fishing net.

    Deli cup questions

    I am NOT using deli cups for shipping. I ship regularly and do not use deli cups. This is for an expo I'm attending;

    I'm trying to order a few bulk batches of deli cups but I'm not sure what sizes to buy.

    What oz deli cups do you guys use for different sized snakes (grams)?
    This is in reference to ball pythons.
    Thanks.
