I forgot to mention only shipping monday thru wednesday. A thursday ship for friday delivery that gets lost for a few hours can stay lost for the entire weekend. The shippers are pretty good at making deliveries close to on time to the right location but they are terrible at finding a lost or late package and getting it redirected in a timely manner. If the weather is okay a little snake can live many days in an insulated box if it has small airholes.
>>I've now shipped out hundreds of snakes and still worry every time. I'm typically quite anal about checking temps, address and published transit times. I also only ship out on Monday - Wednesday, that leaves me an "extra" weekday just in case the package gets delayed. Not often but does happen.

>>So far (knock on wood) every baby I've shipped has arrived safe and sound!!! I do dread the day when I break that perfect streak.
