Receiving a Beardie in the Mail

[volvotech]

I've got several dragons, but I bought all of them in person. My first shipped dragon arrives tomorrow, and I was wondering if there are any special directions for that. For instance, my Uromastyx got a quick bath before he went into his enclosure.

Any ideas / tips? Thanks!

I've heard that they can get a little dehydrated in transit, so a bath can be helpful. Wave had done a poo in the cup she came in, so she needed a bath. I also offered her food very soon after she got here, since she hadn't had anything for quite some time.

She didn't seem any worse the wear for having arrived that way, fortunately. Good luck with the waiting tomorrow - I know it's tough!
