    Exclamation Shipping Help!! ASAP!!!

    Guys I need help as soon as possible. I leave tomorrow for California. Today it was 80 degrees here and it is probably going to be just as warm tomorrow and warmer in California. I bought heat packs when it was cooler outside. It gets pretty chilly at night. I have 30 hour heat packs. Chimera, Kozma, Ashes, and Orion are all going together. Kaiser is going separate.

    I don't know whether to ship them with a heat pack or not! I realize they get hot and I don't want them to fry. Anyone with experience in shipping reptiles in warm weather please help me out. I've only shipped in cooler weather. Thank you!

    If the temperature gets over 80, I would not ship with a heat pack. What are the tempertures along the route? Who are you shipping with?

    I don't know what the route is they take. They are going through FedEx. Are the airplanes temperature controlled? It gets pretty cold at night.

    You should be able to contact Fed Ex or even look online and find out the route. Make sure the animals have no food in their bellies! I'm in southern Cali and it's high 90's. I don't know where in Cali you are going but it aint heat pack weather where I am.
