I have received only one snake through the mail and they used Federal Express. The 12” IJ carpet Python was in a cloth snake bag floating in shredded newspaper inside a cardboard box lined with 1” Styrofoam. The box was 10x10x10”. Is this the best way to pack small snakes and do they have enough air for the trip?



I’m getting ready to send a late 06 hog island boa and was wondering the safest way possible. How much to send it cross-country Federal Express Vs Delta dash? An approximant guess will do.



Thanks in advanced for any help!
