of you have shipped or received reptiles without insulated boxes? I have had quite a few reptiles delivered. Some with insulated boxes and some without. A couple times they were shipped in an ordinary shipping (i.e Fed Ex) cardboard box with a "live harmless reptiles" sticker. Obviously, the need for an insulated box depends greatly on the weather, but there are still many temperature changes during flight, etc. Basically I'm just curious about the numbers (insulated boxes vs. uninsulated). Also, any bad experiences either way. Thanks for your replies.
