There is actually a shipping forum on kingsnake.com, it is not as popular as some of the other forums so you might not get an answer for a while.
So the first step is to contact one of the shipping companies and get an account set up to ship live animals, UPS, Fed-X, DHL, Delta. You used to have to jump thru hoops of fire to ship reptiles, but the shippers realized that there were a lot of people wanting to ship them so they relaxed their standards in order to not miss so much business. You can ship thru the Post Office, but don't take this chance with your animals. Either call the 800 number or go to the UPS or Fed-X (whatever) central hub near you. (The UPS stores and Fed-X/Kinkos will tell you they can't ship live animals.) Go to the main UPS or Fed-X center. Be sure to tell them that you want to ship live animals.
The next step is to get shipping supplies - Reinforced Boxes, Deli Containers, Heat Packs and Cool Packs. Superior Enterprise is very good. http://www.superiorenterprise.com/
Then of course you'll need to advertise: The classified ads here on Kingsnake are $100 a year. If I list another place to sell your animals, then this post will get taken down so e-mail me at ambanja@hotmail.com
