Question about shipping hots

StevenOrndorff Nov 23, 2009 05:47 PM

I'ts legal to own (most) hots where i live but the nearest airport is in a city that they are not allowed. Can I get them shipped there? Also how does it work when i go to a show? Do I have to check the laws in every town i drive through? I had to just drive and pray i don't get pulled over. I've only bought at shows because i'm not sure about the shipping thing, but i didn't see what i wanted at the last one. Hard time effected the selection i guess

You can get reptiles in and ship as well as long as they are not staying there.Trans port is ok as most states have laws about animals passing through.I would check the laws of each modality you travel through to be safe.

I agree with Archie. I would also like to add that the easiest way to win an argument, is to avoid it! Don't speed or do anything else to draw attention to yourself. And make sure that the animals are very secure for transport.
