How to move house with BP Eggs?

No inverted needed, for about $50 you can get a cooler/warmer unit that plugs directly into the cigarette lighter. I would use a digital thermometer with a probe on a cord so you can monitor the temperature inside without having to open it, or relying on the unit's thermostat since it may not be accurate.

Buy a portable generator

Actually not a bad idea. You can get one of those little power inverters for your car for about $20 that will put out 110v.[/QUOTE]

I have a reptibator in storage that I guess I could pull out for the trip and plug it into an inverter, or invest in the car warmer/cooler unit. What I'm concerned about is the bumps and vibrations. Rolling eggs are not good, but can an egg withstand 12 hours of car vibrations?

I don't think the vibrations will matter. I mean, gravid females are flown over from Africa and shipped FedEx, and the eggs hatch out.

I'm thinking if they are in vermiculite or perlite, or a substrate of that kind, they would probably be fine. I doubt the vibrations would be enough to harm them.
