: I would NOT recommend shipping any tortoises or turtles at all until spring, especially babies. The weather is just too cold and the shipping companies are not reliable enough. My organization ships all the time, we ran into enough problems when we used to ship in the winters that we stopped that practice..some of the problems resulted in safety issues for the animals in the boxes. If you must ship in the winter, consider using Delta DASH same-day. that's probably the safest considering. Otherwise, I'd recommend waiting until May
