How to ship live animals?

[Jeff876533]

hey guys, i'm going to be sending two leopard geckos to somebody, and i have no clue on how to ship them. I dont have any clue on what supplies i need, and how to ship them. Can anybody give me information on how to do this, and/or a list of supplies i'd need?

Hmmm, you need to have an account with either Fedex or UPS to ship live animals. You can call them direct on how to set up an account or on thier websights. With fedex you have to do a sample ship for them to approve and I think ups does now to. At least when I was checking a few months ago you had to. Do a general search here on ship supplies, there are a few topics on where to get stuff and general ship info.

Actually I just got of the phone with UPS and they said that you don't need to have an account in order to ship geckos.
