Congrats on the new arrivals. I bought 2 snakes from Rusty at Daytona (Ghost & Hypo ). They are beautiful and growing like weeds. He produced some nice snakes this year...........

that I've sold my stuff outside just local interests. I finally produced some stuff this year that was just too high end for the local pet store!

I got FedEx certified this month, so that was a bit of a struggle...not that it was all that difficult, but some people that work for FedEx didn't realize that they allow shipping of reptiles...there was a lot of mis-information. I had a lot of help with this FedEx stuff (Terry, Ray, and others) so if anyone has a question let me know.

I'm glad they got there safely...Jason, nice pictures of the packaging by the way. Good luck with getting good pictures, that always a challenge.

You have some good blood in all those neonates...in a few years you'll be very happy when those new Hondos peek out!

Congratulations that you were able to ship as a FEDEX certified shipper. I'm glad that I could help in some way. I was wondering about whether you hit a snag or went smoothly on getting certified. I was lucky to have contacted the right person in my area. But all is well that ends well!

Great job in packaging! And great hondos too !

later...

Congrats Rusty, you really produced some killer Hondo's this year!!

It's good to hear got Fedex Certified... i think i was in the process of being certified last time we spoke??

I also thought that getting certified was really not that bad.. You just need to make some phone calls to get in touch with the right people and then jump through some hoops.. The hardest part of the whole thing is finding someone at Fedex that knows what steps to take to get it done for you.. But it's worth it to be able to ship legally!

Rusty is a super guy and has some really nice animals. I'm sure you'll enjoy them.

Thanks everyone!! And again thanks Rusty!! I might need some "insider" info on who you spoke with at Fed/Ex once I am ready to get certified.

Also all 4 poops these past two days and are settling in nicely. On Sunday they will get feed lets hope they all eat!!
