As far as im aware you just need a receipt showing what they are i.e. what species.

if they are species that require cites paperwork make sure you have it,
the receipt from the vendor is always good, some will write one out then send a better/official one to you at a later date.
DWA is obvious, take ya paper work.

i have found over several trip's as long as you are straight they will just let you carry on through.

the last time i went with a friend who runs a reptile shop and they had already taken our number plate on the way out, so on the way back we got stopped by french custom's and searched. they searched us and they stripped the car.
we then left french custom after putting the car back together, and then would you believe it we got pulled by English custom's!
over to the garage we went, i got out the car and stated that we had just gone through it all with the french, they said OK, we will let you off with the drug's and weapon search but we still want to check the animals.
