We understand your anticipation, and appreciate your patience while you wait for your box! My Reptile Crate is operated by one individual, who is solely responsible for creating the artwork and creative content, as well as manufacturing each item and packing each crate for every order. There are several different time-consuming processes that go into completing just one box, including: writing, formatting, printing and binding each booklet, printing the posters and care guides, printing and cutting the critter cards, flashcards, and stickers, manufacturing the unique items, putting together the activities, roasting the coffee when applicable, and of course, packing and sorting each box to be shipped to you. Some boxes take longer to produce than others, which means some of our boxes may arrive near the middle of the month, while others may arrive near the end of the month. Production time depends on how long it takes to produce the unique items and put together the activity in each box. For some items, we can create them in batches of 10 within a 60 second timeframe. However, for other items, we may only be able to produce 1 item in that same 60 second timeframe. We are always working on solutions that allow us to fulfill orders more quickly and efficiently, but as a small business just getting its feet off the ground, it will take us some time to get there. We appreciate all of our founding customers who have continued supporting us while we work on improving My Reptile Crate, little by little, each and every day. Thank you!

The exact ship date varies each month depending on how much time the current box takes to produce. Orders placed by the 30th of the current month can expect to receive their first box by the end of the following month. We announce the ship dates for the latest box at the top of our website. For example, if you place an order between August 1st - August 30th, your first box will arrive by the end of September. However, if you place an order between August 31st - September 30th, your first box will arrive by the end of October. Your first box will feature the Reptile of the Month announced at the top of our website at the time your order is placed.

You will be provided with a tracking number via email as soon as your shipment is sent out.

While we try to pack each box with care, sometimes the shipping process is harsh and may result in damages to the box, and in rare cases, the contents as well. Please send us an email at support@myreptilecrate or contact us through the chat feature on our website with photos of your damaged box and we will send you a new box right away, free of charge! Please note that requests involving boxes with minor cosmetic damage such as scratches, scuff marks, and tears that do not disrupt the integrity of the box are not eligible to receive a new box.

We are very sorry if an item is missing from your box! If you are missing an item, please contact us at support@myreptilecrate.com or through the chat feature on our website and let us know which item is missing from your box along with your order number. We will request a photo of the complete contents of the box that you received, and upon approval, we will send you a brand new box free of charge!

We are always finding new ways to keep each box interesting, so no two boxes are identical to each other! Our Standard Crate includes at least 9 items, some of which vary each month. Each box will contain a booklet, educational activity, Critter Card, flashcards, a sticker, and a care sheet; the remaining items alternate each month, and may be a variety of unique surprises such as wall art, accessories, magnets, bookmarks, home decor and much more! Our Miniature Crate includes 6 items, and will contain a booklet, sticker, Critter Card, flashcards, care sheet, and one unique surprise that will alternate each month.

Our crates are suitable for all ages and are best enjoyed as a family activity where everyone is learning together! The adventures inside are fun and educational for adults and kids alike.
