I know they'll be fine. Try not to worry. Just curious, why are you shipping them? Are you going somewhere else for the holidays? I remember when we bought our house six years ago all I could think about was having all the cages set up and warm for my babies the minute I arrived at the new house--I didn't care at all about stuff like furniture or anything people used (much to the annoyance of my poor husband).

May they have a safe and speedy trip home.

well i go to school at san diego state for my masters but i am originally from south carolina. over the summer my parents decided to move back to west virginia to take care of all the old folks but my sisters are still in SC.
the lizards are being shipped to WV, my first stop. i am going to be gone for like a month and could not afford a sitter for that long and since airlines do not let them on the plane, i did not really have many options left and it was cheaper to overnight them than pay for them as cargo on a plane.
i still kind of want to throw up and that was the worst thing ever putting them in a box and entrusting them to other people.

terrible you feel. I never feel any better about it.

As a breeder / seller you feel that way everytime

And I figure I also buy alot of them and make other people shove them in boxes and ship them also. They should be there before ya know it. Waiting for you to arrive.

Let us know !
