    Traveling with bp
    I’m making a presentation in my genetics class on the evolution of snakes and i’m bringing in my bp, PJ. The class is 3 hours long and its a half hour ride. So he’ll be out of his tank for at least 4 hours. does anyone have any thoughts on what i should put him in to make him most comfortable. I have a snake bag, would that be sufficient for that length of time? I also have a portable heating pad (it looks like a frisbee) that I could bring as well.
    thanks for any advice!

    maybe use an insulated box and a heat pack or the portable thing you have.

    thats what i was gonna say, put the snake in the snake bag but tie it at the top of the bag so he can move on and off the heat thing while still in the bag. and i would use an icechest as an "insulated box."

    I ask because I find it a little uncomfortable to keep reading posts that just repeat what has already been stated on the thread or in other threads.

    Giving advice and suggestions from practical experience is an excellent way of sharing information and helping other people out, but if everyone just got on here and regurgitated everything that they've ever read in books or in the internet about about ball pythons, this site would be pretty lame.

    If you have the ability ,use the climate control for your car to heat it up to the right specs for you BP. Also bring your tank if you can (doubt it) and bring a car adaptor for the car.
