    Transporting Animals

    How do large scale operations transport all of the cold blooded animals they have to shows?

    Watching video clips of events and looking at the pics, it looks like osme of the outfits can easily have 50+ animals on display.

    Its hard enough to keep temp and humidity in a good range while they are in their enclosures, so do they have special trailers that have dedicated rack systems?

    I think most just personally drive them there. But then again I am not 100% sure.

    Well Im sure that they drive them , but how do they keep them in a decent enviroment for the trip. Like BHB, (in FL right?) head to a show in say Chicago, that is a fairly long drive.

    Not 100% sure, you could ask Brian from BHB. He is on the forum every once and a while, you can also contact him through his site.
