I just wonder how old the pups are when people sell and ship pups? I have 4 pups that is 3 weeks old, and i wonder when they will be capable of shipping? The shipping is 10 houres.
 
i have shipped motoro pups the same week they were born. once the "yolk" sack is gone, they ready IMO.

If i was selling more expensive black rays i would wait until about 2 weeks old or at least eating welll.
 
I sell after I make sure they are doing well eating/growing etc. Normally 2 weeks is good.
 
My pups will be picked up after 7 weeks and will travel a few hours away from my place. Just making sure that they are big enough and eating well. I have bought a couple of younger pups and it didn't end well. It's just my preference and have an extra tank for them anyway. Its good also to watch how the pups grow and how they develop their spots. Mine are superspot motoros.
