dubias and shipping

how well do they survive in transit, i ordered about 1000 in all kinds of sizes, i paid the extra for the express shipping but they didnt come today, so im wondering if they will be ok till they get here tmrw, i dont know what kinda climate control they have at the mail sorting centers, but here in texas we are on a major heat streak and i woul dhate for them to come tmrw and be dead.

yeah they got here ok, nothing was DOA but there was an adult male that was on the brink of death, i think hes dead now, and there was a large nymph that i thought i was dieing but i cant find him now, debbie said he may of just molted into adulthood, cause i dont know where he is now.

I shipped out an order a few weeks ago. It was lost in the mail and the customer picked it up 10 days after the "ETA". So roughly 13 days and all survived. Packing is important, if they are packaged right then they can survive for a while unless they sit out in the sun all day.
