I posted it......They don't sell croccodiles to ANYONE.You need to be approved and make sure the law in your state allows you to keep them.

LOL I am not looking to get a crock lol . That was the thing about the site that made it different from everything else lol.

How do you ship a turtle . But put him in a box with damp rags . And a cooling or heating pad depending on the way . And ship his shell over night .

It just seems kinda dangerous to ship them. but as long as you got good drivers i guess its not bad

I don't advise anyone to buy turtles online, particularly in colder months.Most arrive sick and start showing symptoms after a few days.
Now would probably be the best time to buy cause the weather is not cold and not necessarily super hot either.Shipping is around $40.00 for overnight and $20 second day.The first option is best cause you have a "live on arrival" guarantee but cost a lot, the second costs less but the turts have to be in the box for an extra day and no guarantee.
The only reason why i would do it, is to buy a particular turtle that i can't find by me (NJ pet stores do not sell turtles)

My turtle was "adopted" from a website that will remain nameless. My friend ordered him for me and got the delivery. It was a surprise gift. I didn't actually see how they shipped it, but he told me about it. It was a Styrofoam box that they overnighted to him (in NJ from Florida) The turtle was tiny and sick. I was lucky he pulled through. If I was looking for another turtle, I wouldn't have it shipped.

I would suggest reptile shows . That is where I got Mappy and he is so active and happy .

I got one shipped and he died . With in a week.
