Live Animal Shipping Reminder for Fall and Winter Weather

As temperatures start to drop, it’s a good time to keep weather in mind when scheduling your live animal shipment. 🍂🦎

To help ensure every gecko arrives safely, we only ship when the daytime high and overnight low temperatures are between 32°F and 85°F at both the shipping and delivery locations. If conditions fall outside that safe range, we may need to hold your gecko until the weather improves.

Live animals ship Monday through Wednesday via FedEx Next Day and must be scheduled in advance. If temperatures are only slightly outside our normal range, pickup at an approved FedEx Ship Center may also be an option.

Before scheduling, be sure to review our full Live Animal Shipping Policy for more information about weather requirements, buyer responsibilities, our live arrival guarantee, and scheduling your shipment.
