FedEx gave me my Baby!!

He's here! He's here! Safe and sound! Poor little puntikins..A wee bit chilly but not too bad. He is warming up fast now though. Very active and happy go lucky with the most amazing green eyes. I took a picture as I lifted him from the tupperware and into the viv. Then a few shots of him deciding if he likes the place. Let's hope so.
He is from JaneoftheJungle and came with amazing info, each feeding, all his stats, pics of mom and dad. Very very nice to have. And she did an amazing packing job.
Thanks so much everyone for your support and well wishes. Now everyone bask in his spidery glory!

FedEx transported your snake?? Can you tell me more about this? I never thought about FedEx having pet transport! I have always traveled with my snakes by sneaking them onto Amtrak train with me because I had called every major airline and they all told me NO, snakes of all kinds are not allowed on board even as cargo. Recently though, I called Continental and they said they will allow them on as cargo, but in separate burlap sacs and in a hard case with small vents for air, but I am nervous about it, not sure if it will be safe for them. But, if you can tell me that for sure FedEx is safe for their travel, perhaps I should look into that instead!
Thanks!

Yes FedEx will ship snakes, that is how I got mine from the breeder. However you have to be certified to ship through them.

Hello, thanks for the fast reply, I contacted FedEx and they only allow business to business transport, of course they make things difficult.... lol
