hey! im moving my snakes from bloomington, IL to St Louis in a few weeks. my vet told me to heat up some rice in a bag to act as a safe heating pad. It is getting nice out so it may be a pretty safe trip for monty. my girls usually sit in a cloth purse I hug close to my body under a blankie, If I am too hot then I know they are, if they move too much or want let out i let them come out. They usually let you know if they are comfortable.

the rice works great as a heat source it its cold. Add a tad bit of water and mic it for a bit. make sure to wrap it up so the snake cant get directly on the heat so it doesnt burn!
