Re: Leaving Snakes Alone For A Few Days?

However, it is completely up to you whether you feel comfortable leaving them alone or not.
I have left my entire collection alone for a week once...came back, no problems. Instead of hauling tanks just grab some tubs, newspaper, undertank heater, and just leave the tanks at home. I left my collection at my house, I would be very wary about leaving them alone in a dorm/apartment.
