It's a perfect day in NJ for crabs. Humid as heck! Lol the newbies are switching into new shells and munching on cuttlebone. I'm glad bc my pp and straws never touched the stuff. I'm honestly surprised most of Em haven't dug down yet. Most of my newbies do. The blueberries were really hairy when I got them.

did you get a tracking nu mber?

Yes but accuracy and updates are a fail. The tracking states guaranteed delivery by 7.9.14 by 3:00 pm. That's a negative captain, lol. Oh well what's one more day? I'm in Florida... Maybe that's why?

Happy for everyone else though.

I kinda figured you'd end up getting them tomorrow honestly. Thats a pretty far trip for one day. Im just worried what if they deliver after you've left. Did you check in with them?

I was thinking the exact same thing. Does it say out for delivery? I've had things come as late as 8pm when sennt overnight or express.

Last check in was at 3:25 pm yesterday in NY. I had to go by the bank as a coincidence and stopped by the office and there was nothing.

If you paid for overnight/one-day shipping for a LIVE ANIMAL, you should receive the animal in ONE DAY. It doesn't matter how far away the shipper is, if they live in the continental US, you should receive your animal overnight. (I've received animals from CA overnight, and I live in PA.)

Contact both LHC and the post office ASAP to let them know. You should AT LEAST get a shipping refund from the post office, if not a full refund for the animals (live animals are usually insured). Even if the crabs arrive healthy, you did not get what you paid for.

When you check out, you can only pay for 1-2 day shipping.
No reason to freak out. Plenty of people, including myself, have received crabs in two days and they've been perfectly healthy.

Only Fedex and UPS offer guarenteed overnight shipping. USPS changed from "Overnight" to "Express" a few years back and their fastest service is guaranteed two-day or less and is dependant on how far away the package is being sent. 1-day is normally within a state or two radius and anything past that is 2-day.

Ugh. Mine didn't come today, despite my tracking saying they would. The tracking did show that they were coming "Priority Mail Express-One Day" through usps. Now I'm really nervous! I have my iso set up for my husband tomorrow. He's not into the crabs, so I'm hoping that he does ok!

I can see both sides of this part; yes the crabs SHOULD be okay (mine always came overnight) but it DOES also say "1 Day", and a date & time with "money back guarantee" so you should get what you paid for & were guaranteed or not have to pay the shipping.

LOL Careyenz, I thought you said that you were going to ISO your husband! I was like "Wat?"

There's nothing wrong with iso'ng your husband from time to time.

I am so excited I am shaking. I have the most adorable 4 baby ruggies I have ever seen. I may most pics later this evening if they settle some. 1 is very dark, 1 just a light to dark brown, 2 are light pinkish 1 with tints of green one with tints of blue.

They are amazing... 4 were all in the same burlap bag.
