    I would get a nice dark pillowcase and put him in there. Just make sure he is not in direct sunlight and you'll be good to go. Seeing as how its summer time outside, you shouldnt have to worry about heating the container. I wouldnt let the A/C blow directly on him tho. He should be fine inside the pillowcase on your lap.

    He should be ok .. i wouldnt have the radio too loud It'll be dark inside the pillowcase. I've riden a couple of hours with snakes like that with no ill effects yet. Good luck at the breeders!

    mine seems to be very content in a pillow case. he goes in it willingly at times. tho i do notice, if i drive smoothly, when i go to get him out of the case he is all relaxed in there. the other day i hit alot of bumps and when i went to get him he was all balled up seeming a little more stressed. so they obviously react to movement.
