But if the woman didn't want anybody to know what was in it - ask her why she marked "Live Reptile" on the package ??
Hope it arrives healthy and well.
After this hard start, I'd give it a good rest before you start handling it. A whole week, be strong.

I have seen first hand the way Aussie post handles things and it isn't good. Anyway if they know it is a live reptile(Iassume she marked it as such?) they put it to the side usually in an airconed room. Should be alright , fingers crossed |

SHE KNOWS its illegal i told her and she said ' i know but its cheaper'

she said 'i haven't had a complaint yet because its cheeper and none have died'
| She is NOT a good herper! ANYONE who would breed and then send by Australias Post is not a good herper but an aberation on the hobby and deserves to have her licence confiscated. Pleas give me this persons contact details, I will do the rest. |

I would have thought that the least consideration she would have shown for her carefully raised (herp) progeny. 
Really hope spotted post's that it arrives ok today, lots of us will be releived, Spotted most of all.
