Question Any1 know the deal with sending snakes over post?
Heya,

Im after getting some snakes from a woman in cheshire... Its way to far to travel plus i dont drive (that kinda doesnt help)

She is happy to send them Via post but hasnt done it before so if i can sort it then i can get them.

Anyone know the deal with snake post/Pet taxis?

the only courier that will take pets is TNT and first off u need an account with them, second i think they are phasing it out and third i wouldn't use them anyway cos my royal turned up so cold i thought it was dead

use reptile taxi/petwheels or similar

Def not tnt, they can't even hold a box the right way up when it is clearly labelled.

Reptile taxi best bet but don't think it is cheap.
