shipping in cold weather questions

ageber Jan 30, 2011 07:20 AM

I have to ship some baby bearded dragons from new jersey to california. I have heat packs but we seem to be getting snow every other day here or the temps at night have not gone above the mid 20s. I am curious if this is safe to ship or do i need to wait for temps to go back up again. I have an anxious person in california as well as i would like to get rid of the babies before they become adults.

any help with how and when to do this would be greatly appreciated

Check the weather FAQ at our site, linked below. You can ship successfully through the winter, but there are certainly cold snaps that become too much of a gamble for safe live arrival.

That nationwide storm period that just passed prohibited safe shipping across the entire nation, because of so many plane and transport delays. You have to wait for crazy times like that to pass.

But we shipped 600 successful packages this week through ShipYourReptiles.com, and weather next week looks great as well. Use the site weather guidelines, and feel free to call for more detailed weather discussion.
