How to ship reptile pets to other states and overseas?

ஓம் நம சிவாய: How to ship reptile pets to other states and overseas?
My friend Alex breeds and raises different kinds of snakes, lizards and amphibians. Normally he sells them locally but has recently gotten requests to sell to other states and even overseas but he is afraid to ship them so far. Both me and Alex love the pets he breeds and Alex does not want them to be under stress or harm. Is there a way to ship a reptile without causing it to much stress, how would you do this?

I only know how to ship snakes. I’m sure there wouldn’t be to much of a difference in shipping many other different reptiles. With a snake you need a small box, news paper, cheese cloth and tape. Take the news paper and crumple it all into balls, then fill the box half way with the crumpled news paper balls, place the snake into cheese cloth and tie the top so the snake can not get out, place the snake and cheese cloth into the box and fill the box the rest of the way up with news paper. Then tape the box up. Your friend is going to have to send the snake over night or there is more risk of the snake not making it to you in good health. I breed snakes and i have sent a few snakes this way. It has always worked for me. Good luck!
