Im not trying to get in the middle of this , but i thought you always no matter what the temp is have to use an insulated box with at least 3/4" styrofoam. I watched a video on syr and spoke with fedex about this.

I have never lost a snake in over 5 years of shipping. What works for one person doesn't necessarily mean it is the only way. I apologize if i am coming off as attacking you but after reading that post i felt like you were basically saying your way is the only right way to do it and that is not the case.

Back to the original post i shipped to robert last week with my temps hovering around 40 and his temps at 75. No insulation, no heat packs, and snakes arrived healthy as always.

Also.... Shipping usps is and always has been illegal to ship snakes. The only way to legally ship reptiles is to get certified through fedex or go through a company such as syr.
