3.7 Delivery of live animals
3.7.1 Vertebrates will only be delivered if we have a valid authorisation to trade in vertebrates in accordance with §11 of the Animal Protection Act. DGHT/VDA certificates of expertise alone are not accepted!
3.7.2 Vertebrates are shipped exclusively by live animal carrier. Invertebrate feed animals are dispatched by express carrier or, on request, as a standard parcel. Frozen goods are dispatched by express carrier or animal carrier. Depending on the weather conditions, we will choose the appropriate packaging at our discretion. The shipping and packaging costs shall always be borne by the buyer. We will credit the packaging charged to the buyer if the goods are returned free of charge, provided they are in perfect condition. This does not apply to shipping packaging for rodents, which we cannot take back for reasons of hygiene.
3.7.3 All animals offered by us comply with the statutory provisions.

Annex A animals are only sold with a certificate. A certificate will be charged at cost price of EUR 5.00. We can only provide additional proof of legality if the buyer provides us with proof of purchase (invoice). Such requests will be processed as quickly as possible, but may take some time depending on the effort involved. Costs incurred by us due to additionally provided proofs shall be borne by the buyer.

4.8 Warranty claims of any kind shall expire six months after delivery.
4.9 Special features of the warranty for live animals.
4.9.1 In general, live animals are to be regarded as used goods that may have obvious or hidden defects. Animals with regenerated tails or healed wounds are not considered defective; this also applies to defects such as parasite infestation, missing claws or toes, carapace damage or minor tail defects, which can often occur in live animals. Due to the nature of the matter, we cannot be held liable for internal diseases and parasites. We endeavour to only sell animals that appear healthy on the outside. We do not guarantee the sex of the animals; sexing is carried out to the best of our knowledge and belief.
4.9.2 Within Germany, we guarantee the live arrival of vertebrates, provided that the carrier is not at fault. After receipt, the risk of loss or deterioration of the goods is transferred to the buyer. We cannot be held liable for the live arrival of food animals in extreme weather conditions.
