dovii in washington state are a dime a dozen. i and many others couldnt even give dovii away. i tried to sell a breeding pair for $50 and no dice, finally gave em away after a month or two and had to split em up. of course every person from every other corner of the USA wanted em though. WA is beyond full of dovii, good luck.

I plead quilty...

The female was purchased directly from TUIC and the male was from The Wet Spot in Portland,OR which told me they ordered from Jeff Rapps at TUIC as well.I might consider shipping,it makes me a little nervous though...

I have sent tons of Doviis to the Wet spot and that male sure looks like it was from my stock...

Yeah,he's awesome,it really sucks to get rid of these guys but I'm sure anyone would if they knew the importance of my new arrivals...

Chris what would your recommendation be for a dovii this size ? syrafoam box his size just lines with bags (similar to those 14x6" syrafoam coolers) ?

I'd triple bag them with the large box-bottomed bags, wrap that with bubble wrap or foam, and then bag the whole thing with a contractor bag or another box-bottomed bag (if it will fit). Pack them separately, the larger the better (box and bags), and definitely use pure oxygen if there's going to be a long travel time (anything more than same day). At this time of year, you'll need a 24hr hand warmer in the box too. Tape that to the lid, and line everything with newspaper and fill the gaps with bunched up paper).

Prep is very important too. No feeding for a few days, a big water change, and bag buddies in the shipping bag too.

was just wondering simply because I received a 8" female umbee that had no problem puncturing 3 bags and was half dead when I received her.
