Does anyone know of where at any of our local (Canadian) stores that carry the 72 Hour heat packs? I need to send some egg and of course the weather has turned colder

Any suggestions or places would be appreciated. Thanks!

They are commonly used by reptile and tropical fish stores. I would call them locally and ask or they might sell you a few if needed ASAP.

Otherwise try these online shops

Thanks for the info. I was just wondering about the same thing.

Can you use mitt and boot warmers?

They don't stay warm long enough need something that last 2 to 3 days.

Thank you so much LongCrow!!

The Guelph location is perfect, figures it turns cold right when I have eggs to ship on Monday

I've bought from Angelfins too. Best prices I could find when I bought them. Work great too!

I seem to think I remember buying some 72 hour packs from sport check when I shipped my big boas. But that was a long time ago, all I remember is I bought them from a store in sarnia and it was the last place I would have thought to check. Someone else told me they had them.

Edit.... I cant find any on their website though...

Anyone selling day-old chicks at the spring sales like Mt. Forest could also make good use of these.
Handy and inexpensive.
We all know chilled chicks never do as well. Or maybe as a buyer, take on with you just in case.
