    Travel Question

    In a few weeks my university will be on Winter break and I'm going home during this time. I live about an hour away from school and since we rent a house I can leave my stuff here. Question is, should I leave Bustos(my snake) at school or should I take him home with me?

    I forgot to mention...I'll be coming back here probably once or so a week to check the mail and good stuff like that.

    take it with you, if you are only going to be at the one place once a week then you should take it with you. snakes need daily monitoring to ensure that nothing out of the ordinary occurs. plus, what is the point in having a snake if you are only going to see it for a little while once or twice a week?

    Re: Travel Question

    It shouldn't be too bad. I'm in the same boat as you, being in University, so I have to transport my reptiles back and forth a couple times a year. (and have set-ups in boths places prepared) Try and make the ride as short as possible (aka no unessasary stops) and it also helps to have the enviornments at home and at school set up similarly.
