Shipping in cold weather.

[Kaorte]

Here's the trick I use that we learned from Monica Foschi when she shipped to us back a couple years ago.
I still thank her for teaching me this ... Thanks Monica!

We package ours similar to outback with one major exception, we do not use newspaper for filler.
We Use pillow fiber filling for insulation in the box, not paper, this allows the heat to go throughout the box preventing the cold spots that newspaper does cause.

We have shipped many packages to the opposite coast to 35 degree temps and had snakes show up perfectly warm everytime

Thanks for the tip! Monica and I talk a lot since we live very close, so she was one of the first people I contacted about cold weather shipping. She did suggest using the polyester fill.

I'm feeling pretty confident. We won't be shipping them until next week at the earliest, so I'm hoping there is a nice warm spell before Feb 1. If not...we will pick the warmest day and hope for the best. It looks like the only major problems either come from incorrect packaging or a big mix-up on the Fedex end.
