⚠️⚠️ REMINDERS ⚠️⚠️
I never thought I would need to make this post but based on some stuff I saw lately and people trying to walk around it...
Mostly from people who were not just beginners ( for beginners, not knowing is normal ).
Rodents CANNOT be Shipped via regular courriers.
( USPS, UPS, DHL, FEDEX, ETC. )
❌️ Even if it is Overnight ❌️
Anyone attempting to do so or suggesting to do so will be permanently banned and black listed.
⛔️⛔️⛔️
There is tons of transport option provided by breeders and small animal transports in the US... USE THEM.
DO NOT endanger Animals because you are impatient or wanting a "cheaper", "covenient" option.
❌️❌️❌️
Not only is it ILLEGAL, but it is for GOOD REASONS that you cannot just mail Mammals in the same way as reptiles/insects/chickens.
Rodents are senssitive animals, and easily stressed.
Even with Overnight, DELAYS CAN HAPPEN.
And delays on mammals can QUICKLY become deadly, especially rodents.
Mice and Rats have incredibly fast metabolism, even more so under stress.
More than 24h without proper hydration/food will most likely kill them.
Hours in a closed box with no ventilation will kill them or make them sick.
EVEN if you can put them in a cage, then in a box, to avoid chewing, it won't solve any of the other issues.
Let alone possibility of the mail carrier to flip/toss the package even if it has labels about temperature/sideUp.
