Delta is getting Stupid with the price of shipping. It is unreasonable now to get a snake shipped to you becouse of the everrising cost of shipping. Not to mention you have to pay a Box charge on top of that.

I am fed up with it. I say we all get together and start transporting our own snakes.

This is what I have planned.

On this forum we have people from all across the US and then some. If we would all work together like we should this is how it would work.

You have a snake package comming from Florida to Texas for example. You have several people in each state that is part of the Transport and the snake is passed on from transport to transport in a timely manner untill it gets to the person who bought the snake.

I understand the downfall of this would be a couple things.

1st there is a higher chance of theft. and second it seems there would be a higher chance for a bite from the snake to one of the transports.

I am still trying to work all of this out and it seems the Bite would only happen if the snake is stolen becouse that is the only way the snake would leave the Box. But, Other than the thief I think it would work as long as there is enough people willing to take it on.

This is also a way for all of us to get to know each other alot better. I think some of you would be amazed at how many Hotheads there are in your towns or nearby cities. This would give us all a chance to meet these people and transport snakes to and from them every single day. Maybe at one point or another the Venomous reptile world will become a Huge Self supported army which would keep the Venomous out of the public eye. This would also be a way to keep snakes out of the hands of the young kids who prob. buy snakes every day off the net. becouse once again the snake would be transported to them by a Venomous snake keeper.

It is one of those I scratch your back and you scratch mine things. But since we all share the same passion for these animals and Delta has a passion for your money who do you think would handle the animal safer?

Please let me know where you are from and if your interested in this type of transportation.



Just a thought kinda like "World Peace" It would be nice but it will prob. never happen. Thank you for your time though.



Now you have something to think about.
