ok so i was just in PA and got a crestie for an early xmass gift and 10min. in the drive home he went stiff sniff* i spoke to a clerk at petco and she said to purchase one when i got back to newyork

I am back in new york now and i am going to a locat petco to purchase one in the morning (about 8hours)

I was wondering if there is any special care i need to take when transporting my new gecko from the petstore? it is a little chillie out here so how could i transport it safely? I tried to keep him warm by putting its containers next to the heater but im wondering if that was a little too much heat for the lil guy. Any helpfull tips will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
plllzzzz help me keep th is bugger alive, he was so cool.
