6-7 days is a hard time for exotic ones.....hope she will made it! Hope that you dont have to share the experience from miszt

@ ant dude: i think you mean Pheidole pallidula

The shorter the trip the better, specially if it are exotic ants and it is cold outside (like here in Europe now). Still hard to say, some survive without anything other need a heat pack and still die on there way. Depending and strength of the queen and species and...

[ant dude]

sorry bout that,i was writing quickly and did not have time really to muck around. but yes 'phiodole pallidula'is how its spelt i know

kasmir79: good luck hope it works out with your order anyway

[kashmir79]

i sent him an email, and hes said hes worried about her too, and he thinks she wont make it, but if she dies hes giving me a refund.
he sent her in a box wrapped in lots of Bubblewrap + heatpack, andi hope that has kept her warm and safe

the reason why its taking so long is because its slap bang near Christmas, so theres lots of mail.
The supplier is German post (DHL)
why not use GLS?, thy are brilliant, always arrive quickly and undamaged, but if it arrives by Royal mail ....god forbid, itl be ruined

but i have recomened them to him, but no reply, i just prey shel be ok

[miszt]

I have also brought this issue up with Kalyatta Kashmir, I hope that he listens, coz he's gona loose allot of business if not at least he will for half of the year, during the summer its not to much of an issue, but the summers in the UK are short if anything lol

[kashmir79]

yeh he would save money, and keep customers too

is Bubblewrap a good insulator?, i know shredded paper is very good for insulating

[miszt]

bubble rap is a good insulator

[kashmir79]

i hope she gets here tomorrow

think positive my friends and antlings !!
