I think they will be fine. The temps aren't too low at night and aren't that hot during the day, well atleast here in MD it's in the upper 70' low 80's. Just ask your customer to check them imediately and let you know how they arrived.

Thats lame. Sorry to hear about that. The temps in Ohio seem pretty good today [highs of mid-low 70's] and tomorrow in Virginia the temps also seem pretty good [highs of low 70's]. I think they should be fine. My fingers are crossed.

Well I live in central NJ and ohio should be a bit cooler than here. I do treework outside and usually break a sweat, but not today. They should be fine and I would request a credit atleast on that shipping fee ;)

We shipped a delivery to Virginia yesterday afternoon. The temps around there are great so I'm sure they'll be fine. The FedEx truck did break down but they called the recipient who was nice enough to drive and pick them up. Keep us posted on what you find out!

Wow, I can only imagine your anger at fed ex. It sounds like the geckos are gonna be fine, just stay optimistic. I recommend that the person receiving them opens the boxes right away (like in the Fed Ex office) to make sure they're okay. People who work there are usually fascinated when you pull out some awesome lizards. Then when they get out to the car they should remove any poop from the deli cups right away for additional gecko stress relief. That's what I do anyway. If it's a really big shipment I guess they might have to wait until they get home.
