Reptile & Amphibian Forums

i did some research and fedex seems the favorite, so i call them up to ask about getting certified to ship reptiles through FedEx. Someone told me you have to send a test package to make sure its safe, stuff like that. FedEx told me that they don't ship anials and gave me the number to a separate shipping company that just does live animals. Now I'm really confused.What shipping companies do you use? What's up with fedex?

My menagerie
2.2 Ball Pythons (expecting eggs!) 1.1 Amazon Tree Boa 1.0 Corn Snake (and 9 eggs) 1.0 Dumeril's Boa 2.1.10 Bearded Dragons 2.1.2 Crested Geckos (and 4 eggs!) 1.1.4 Eastern Box Turtles (eggs?)1.0 Northern Mockingbird 0.3 Chickens 2.0 Cats 1.1 Ferrets plus lots of mice and feeder insects and 3 Black Rat snake eggs

I had the same problem with FedEx when I first tried becoming verified. Every person I talked to gave me another story. If you want to ship with FedEx go to reptster.com and check out what they have to offer. I've used them twice now and it worked fine. They also give you free boxes. I'll try to find the reps name and number that I used for becoming verified if you want to go that route.
