    Just 2? Stick them each in a pillow case, put both pillow cases into a vented tub with a lid, put tub under your covers and climb into bed. You won't crush them that way. If you have a significant other or dogs, they can lie on the other side. Also, if you have a BBQ or camp stove that you can use to warm up water you can make a hot water bottle so you all stay warm.

    You should probably get a hotel anyways with a low of 26. It'll make the whole thing easier for you and definitely for the snakes.

    Thank goodness! Oncor WAY over estimated their restoration time. Our power just came back on over 25 hours ahead of when they said it world.

    Thank you BP.net family for responding so quickly. I was within 5 minutes of heading out the door to a motel with two 20 gallon tanks.

    I will be buying a generator first thing tomorrow. The ambient temps only dropped to 70-71 in the time the power was out so I'm sure they're fine. She's got the pin in her hands now warming her up and I'm fixing to grasp the boa to do the same. Thanks again guys. Y'all are the greatest.
