Hi there,
I’m planning to ship a ball python within the next 2 days to a new owner. I’m overnighting to a Fedex distribution center. After researching on the internet I can’t find a clear answer.
I’m planning to drop off the ball python at a Fedex location at around 5:00pm. The high for tomorrow and the next day is 66/67 degrees.
The destination I am shipping to has a high of 75/77 degrees. Ball python would be picked up at a fedex distribution center most likely by 11am the next day.
Per guidelines I’m told to not use a heat pack if over 70 degrees. However per the guidelines I’m also told if under 70 degrees to use a heat pack. I’m planning to ship in a 12 x 9 x 6 insulated box. Ball python is around 1000 grams.
What do you do with you run into this scenario? Do you avoid shipping until the temps in both places are over 70 degrees?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
