Does anyone on here have first hand experience shipping an adult tegu. My guy is around 44" and weighs roughly 8 lbs.

Anyone have methods that worked for them? How about picks or maybe dimensions of the box you used. Company you used to ship it.

Thanks,

i had to part ways with one of my females this fall. i used dhl for her and had no problems though delta dash is the best option. simply use a large box. put him in a tied pillow case and pack with peanuts or newspaper. make sure you check the weather report first.
