HandS Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Hi, I am woundering if anyone knows how you pack frogs for transport as we have some golden bell baby frogs for sale that we are now having to package up to be sent and am unsure what is the best and safest way to do this. Any idea's will be great Thanks Helen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandS Posted December 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 great thats what i thought but figured i had better check and make sure that was ok. Thanks for that, we are shipping to the south island so wanted to make sure they will be ok for the trip down. Also what courier company would you recommend for shipping them. I know NZ Couriers will ship fish but is there any other company cheaper that you may no if. Cheers Helen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandS Posted December 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 cool thanks for that very much appreciated. Here's hoping they ship well. Cheers Helen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frog Posted December 9, 2007 Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 ship in icecream container, packed with damp sphagnum moss and a few small breathing holes, good luck Agreed, best and safest way, I posted many frogs this way with 100% safety on arrival....even after a package got delayed by 3 days! Frogs were fine, I think they go into a mini hibernation when packed into damp moss, they probably sleep the whole time lol. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
