This one is next but I'm having some issues with the main species I want to send there not being in the USDA database lol. Trying to work that out with them at the moment.Pennsylvania?
Hmm makes sense
Are there a lot of other customers in PA? Just curious, as much as I’d love a site that ships cool insects here, I feel like 90% of the people I know are in CA,TX, and FL lol.This one is next but I'm having some issues with the main species I want to send there not being in the USDA database lol.

I have no idea lol. I definitely get a ton of messages from FL though so I should probably get to that at some point. Still running tests on some species for that region before I decide on one.
Does Maryland include Washington DC for shipping or is that separate?
Noted
Florida seems like a good one.Hi, I'm looking to expand availability for feeder grasshoppers since they've been a big hit. Currently just have California and Texas. I have to apply to each state individually, so it takes a while and I'll be doing just a few at a time. Let me know which states to focus on
I applied for USDA permits to ship to Florida a couple times and had no go with them.

Nope, because the species you're shipping out has to be native to the destination state AND your own state, so neither works. I just found that out recently as well. Unfortunately CA and FL don't share any Schistocerca species, so it might just be a no-go. The person I know who ships them to FL just does it illegally. I don't do this, so I'm sorry Floridians
Differentials are deregulated but I don't really like themMarylandddddddd
Do you need a permit for the legal ones like differentials and the birds that were just deregulated a few years ago? (I forget which)
I should be able to get a MD permit for some bird hoppers though. We'll see...
That is my protocol and is a good protocol. That is to stay with shipping native species only to area's that they are native too. Nobody wants to start an ecological disaster.Nope, because the species you're shipping out has to be native to the destination state AND your own state, so neither works.

I need grasshoppers! Would love to try them out for my Chams.Hi, I'm looking to expand availability for feeder grasshoppers since they've been a big hit. Currently just have California and Texas.

AZ should be doable. It's one of the few states native for S. nitens. I just wasn't sure if people had chameleons there tbh its so hot
