    In case you haven't thought of it: when you take a snake for a car ride, like to the vet, the best way is in a styro-foam shipping box or insulated ice chest, so they
    aren't exposed to chills & temperature changes. Bag the snake first (cloth bag or pillow case), use a wire twist-tie, then fold that end over itself & wrap with a rubber
    band...no snake has ever gotten loose on me, & I've moved across country with my snakes packed this way. You do NOT want a snake loose in your car...the distraction
    can cause an accident, but if you don't see them get out, they'll disappear into your car seats or engine.

    Anyway, inside the "ice chest", a little padding (crumpled paper or a towel) under the bagged snake, & since it's cold, a bottle of hot water will keep it warm inside the
    chest also. Your snake will be protected this way if you have to stop suddenly too.
    Rudeness is the weak man's imitation of strength.
