They actually do send snakes through the mail, that’s how I got mine ~2 years ago. Sadly it was not just sent in a really long box. 1) he was just a baby, 2) it needs to be within a certain temperature range when they mail it and it was inside a foam container (like you would get from HelloFresh), which just had a little Tupperware container inside with air holes. I’m not sure if it’s standard, but I don’t think they deliver it to your door, they hold it at the delivery place and you go pick it up. Sorry to shatter the fantasy.
I’m pretty sure any “living” creature other than like ladybugs have to be mailed in one of those styrofoam cooler containers to regulate temp. Any time I see butterflies, lizards, gator babies, it’s always delivered in one with a sticker indicating the biological material.
