    Moving in the winter!
    So me and my boyfriend are getting our own apartment after some roommate issues. Unfortunately our move out/in date is December 1st. We have two ball pythons and a bearded dragon. What would be the best way to move them without them getting too cold? The place we're moving to is only 10 minutes away from our current apartment [HUGE change from the 16 hour move we went through this summer] at a max so we don't have far to go. Obviously the reptiles themselves would be in the car with us and the bp's in pillowcases and the beardie in a carrier but do you think we'll need heat packs for the pillow cases for when they have to be outside? I try to plan ahead to avoid mishaps and mistakes but things always happen so I want to be as prepared as possible. Does anyone have any other advice to help keep the reptiles as least stressed as possible?

    Thanks for any help and advice!

    You shouldn't have any issues as long as you warm them back up as soon as you get into your new home.

    You could pack them like you where gonna ship them if you feel the drive is that far. But as long as you have the heat on at the new house and heat on in the car , you should be fine . Have every thing set up at the new house before you move any animals !!
