    FEDEX delayed shipping in Memphis.

    My first reptile in 20 years, Priority Overnight and it's stuck in Memphis TN. Took the day off of work.

    Virgina to Florida. Gravid Volta 3000g. I'm pissed.

    Has this happened to anyone else today?

    When I clicked on the package tracker today in large red letters, due to inclimate weather expect possible delays.

    Considering the storm system moving through the Southeast last night/right now (flooding in Memphis, one dead in Nashville), shipping probably wasn't the best idea. If she's being held at the hub, that's probably much safer than them trying to put her on a plane.

    Mine doesn't have any red letters and still says it's ontime. I called to doublecheck and got the bad news. I even cchecked any delays at 4am and last delay was Presidental Inauguration.

    Luckly it was only for about half a day. Snake was cold but alive. I hope things turn out out for you.

    I had a blood python get stuck there for almost 20 hours on its way from southern California to Dallas. FedEx took a whole extra day to deliver. And yes I had to sit on my day off and wait for the package that never came.

    I just had my Dave Green Champagne get delayed about two weeks ago. My shipment got here 24 hours late and my little champ was cold, but alive. He's settled in just fine since, so I'm sure everything will be just fine.
