    Portable heating options?

    I've been asked for the Chordata section of my Biology class next week if I wouldn't mind having my boa Satin make an appearance. She has done great during other educational showings and a lot of people expressed excitement at the idea so I agreed. My plan was to bring her in a Sterilite-esque tub with a layer of aspen, but she will be with me for around 2 hours. We'll be indoors and the temps are probably ~65, so do you all think I'll need some sort of additional heating? I was trying to think of something I could bring along that won't get too hot (I've got these hand warmer packets that were given to me over the winter, but the packaging says they get up to 140F so I don't want to use those), and I have heard of people using plastic bottles filled with warm/hot water wrapped in cloth (socks, shirt, etc.), but I feel that those will cool down too quickly. I could keep filling them up though.

    Any suggestions, or should I stop being such a mom and not worry about it since it will only be ~2 hours?
