I have out-of-state adopters interested in some African clawed frogs, but I don't know how to ship these. I'd shipped a few dozen turtles over the years, but never frogs. How would I pack them? I WILL check the legality of the ship to state before hand.

In case any one is interested, I packed them like hatchling turtles - on damp sphagnum moss in a Gladware contianer, but doubled up on the Gladware (one contianer inside of another) before that went into the shipping box. I was worried about leaking, as I packed the frogs a little damper than I do baby turtles, so there were paper towels in the second Gladware, and holes in all three containers. I used DHL which was still in existance at the time, guess I'd use UPS if I had to do it now.
