Relocation effects on BPs
I have a rescue ball python. I got her about 3 weeks ago. She's eaten three times for me (every five days) and is gaining weight nicely. When I got her, she was very thin, dehydrated, and had a retained shed. She's eating and drinking better than I hoped so I'm hoping she'll shed soon (I actually she might be going into shed. I think I saw a pink belly when she ate her dinner tonight) so we can get this skin out of the way.
Anyway, that was off topic. I am moving on Saturday. Any experience about how moves affect BPs? Since she's so frail, I worry that it might be overly stressful on her. However, there's no way I can avoid moving. Any tips to make this as least stress as possible on her?
Re: Relocation effects on BPs
I moving to a temporary home (my friend's house) for about 2 weeks (unfortunately I have to move because my apartment lease is up and I don't finish my summer classes until middle of August) and then I'm moving about 2 hours away from my temp location to my new home. So not too far. Her cage is coming with me until I can get my rack set up, so it will remain the same until after I get settled in my new house and finish up the rack system.

Thanks for the input! I don't really have a snake bag, but how would a pillow case do? It's 100% cotton so it's breathable.
