Here's the link to Delta's known shipper application form, it'll cost you $50 non-refundable to submit. You fill out this form, then you'll get an email with the application and a request for $50. I like Delta Dash because you usually get same day service. The shipper sends it out in the morning and by afternoon, you have your package. Not always, but often. The downside of course is it is a little more expense than Fed Ex or UPS, and the shipper and receiver have to go to the airport. I am near one of Delta's primary hubs (Cincinnati), so it works our great for me.

Plus, Fed Ex does state that it has to be busines to business (I'm not sure how much they enforce the policy though, I've received my fair share of Fed Ex reptile shipments to my home):

If approved by FedEx, we may accept non-venomous reptiles, amphibians, live/tropical fish and beneficial insects on an exception basis under the following conditions:

Shipments must be from a business to a business (from a breeder to a pet store, for example).
The shipper must have its packaging tested and pre-approved by FedEx Packaging Design and Development for the type of animal being shipped. Call 1.800.633.7019 for assistance. It is the responsibility of the shipper to adequately package shipments for all temperature extremes and handling conditions.

Contact your FedEx account executive for details and additional requirements.
