    My first BP and shipping

    Hello all

    I got my (and my husbands) first BP the other day. So far, so good! It was his day when I got him home so I got to feed him his first frozen mouse. My husband is currently in boot camp and I am relocating from Northern California to Ft. Huachuca, AZ. I am trying to find a way to safely ship my snake. Does anyone have a preference? I have looked at several different website, but I really can't figure out how to do it.

    I'd appreciate any tips and help!

    travel with him just make sure you DO NOT leave him in the car when you are not in it. In AZ the car will reach temps of 160 when not on with the air conditioner running. Put him in a storage container with hole drilled in the sides. Not sure if you are making the trip in one day...if not just take him within the container in the hotel....no one will even know what is in there.

    Ft. Huachuca is beautiful..my husband retired from there and now works there as a civilian.

    Lets just say it has advanced to ....way too much to list
