Ok so I'm looking for advice for how to move my snake halfway accross the country, If I'm lucky this summer I'll be able to get a contract to work in the same town that my parents live in(normally I'm away for University). unfortunately the people I would trust to leave boots with are also leaving this summer so I have very few options and I'd like to bring her with me.
travel wise I'm looking at either a two hour flight (I need to call the airline and see thier animal policy) or a 24 hour train trip followed by 20 hours on a passenger ferry, where I figured I could likely just tuck boots into a small RUB and no one would ever know she was there.
has anyone ever done this kind of moving with a snake? If I have to move I'd like to make this as low stress for her as I can
any advice would be great |

If its not colder than about 18oC then I wouldn't worry about heating etc just stick Boots in a pillowcase, tie it, stick the case in a box and that should be sufficient to keep it stress free.
If its cold you can buy 40 hour heat packs for transporting reptiles. Google them I can only find UK sites (filtered out the others) but these are the sort of thing you are looking for. Then just use a polystyrene box to insulate from the cold.
