When shipping with FedEx, if you do not click the button requiring a signature, then it automatically reverts to not needing a signature. We typically do not require a signature on our shipments because, if there is noone there to sign for the box, the drivers usually do not make another attempt to deliver, and your box will sit at FedEx for another 24 hours (until the next day) before they attempt another delivery. Drivers typically leave the package in a shaded area, and not in direct sunlight. Therefore, if you packaged the snake correctly, it should be just fine.
I am the same way Heather. However, for some reason my customers, lately, don't feel the need to contact me when they receive the animal. The last 4 shipments I made, I had to call the customer at roughly 6pm and ask if they got it. I wish everyone understood how nerve racking that shipping a snake can be for the shipper. As the recipient, your nerves are at ease as soon as you look at the animal, but the shipper relies on the recipient for that warm and fuzzy.Originally Posted by LadyOhh
