My menagerie
2.1 Ball Pythons 1.1 Amazon Tree Boa 1.0 Corn Snake 1.0 Dumeril's Boa 2.1.10 Bearded Dragons 2.1 Crested Geckos (and 2 eggs!) 1.1.4 Eastern Box Turtles 1.0 Northern Mockingbird 0.3 Chickens 2.0 Cats 1.1 Ferrets plus lots of mice, goldfish, and feeder insects

I can only answer 1 question but from my experience FedEx is defiantly the best at handling live shipments and getting them to the destination on time.

Typically only one heat/cold pack is needed per shipping box... if a large box, may need two..but if the box is big enough to require two heat/cold packs, it will be more feasible to just ship two smaller boxes..as the shipping cost tends to be cheaper for two small boxes than one huge box.
