I'm moving out of state to attend University. That said I AM allowed to bring my snakes, but I've never traveled this far (56 hours roughly) with them before. An hour or two at best for vet visits but this is a whole new ballpark. One is 6 years old, the others are 6 and roughly 4 months old. It's just the three and they're all healthy as is, two of which just recently had good full sheds, but is there anything about transporting them that might help me keep their stress to a minimum or precursor measures I should take before such a long trip?
I'm due to leave on the 21'st of January.
They're going to be in the front seat with my passenger just so nothing falls on their travel containers or worse and I have a power source for heat pads and thermometers sealed to the sides of their travel containers for good measure. I usually put some of the tank fillings in with them (repti-bark sphagnum moss etc) and lightly mist it for short trips;--
I'm not sure if there's much else to add? Tips and tricks would be appreciated. I just want to make this as easy as possible on my babies!
Pics just for fun.

And the littlest, Orion whom I guess (Breeder didn't specify at all) is 4 months, if I remember correctly she's a Super Blast.
