Hurricane snake survival kit
I have a hurricane on our hands again, a big one. I made a list for what you need incase of a storm evacuation.
Bottles of water(LOTS)
hides
water bowls
paper towels
insulated shipping box(s)
deli cups
snake bags/pillow cases
heat packs
cold packs
towels
housing for when you arrive at destenation
extra rubbermades
a temp gauge
squirt bottle
*binder clips
*electrical tape
*rubber bands
VET PHONE NUMBERS
* for security
That is what I came up with! Please add you own items.
Good luck to all!

Re: Hurricane snake survival kit
Remember that if you lose power(AC no work) and you have racks, the upper rack might well heat up more than the lower ones, lower spots are cooler spots.
Overheating is dangerous, and water for all your pets adds up to a LOT of water, so store a LOT!
If you intend to fill your bathtub for water, CHECK to see that it seals!! My tub doesn't seal perfectly, and over several hours, it will leak out until there's none. Not knowing ahead of time could make you have no pet water.
Fill your freezers!! Bottles of water if you have nothing else. The ice thus made will keep everything frozen longer.
If you are preparing in case you have to evacuate, remember the ID cards for each snake, and you can put each card into a ziploc bag and put it directly in with the snake(or a quick ID card made just for travel). Even if Snakey poos in his bag(container) the card will be legiable, CRUCIAL if you have multiple snakes, especially hets.
I hope this helps! All I can think of right now.

Works for me, and I have 8! Just multiply everything, per snake.

Re: Hurricane snake survival kit
Well, most of Florida is used to Hurricanes so damage is low and safety is high...nothin more fun then riding on rollerblades and have a sheet to let the wind blow you and your buddies...and don't fear them enjoy them...unless you live in LA.
Yea may seem crazy, but what else can you do with No Power?
