Traveling stress?

[RedSidedSPR]

Leaving tomorrow, need answers.

Is it ok to just take the dangerous stuff out of the vivarium, and just take them in that?
I'll keep the car in the 70s..

Shouldn't be a problem, I would think.

I'd avoid taking anything glass but if you must, make sure that it's well cushioned
don't leave any hard objects inside
personally, I'd put the snakes in a shoe box sized plastic container during car travel, but there is more than one way . . .
if you can manage to keep the temps okay, they should be fine

I want to put them in something else, i just don't have anything...

Should i go buy something, or is it that important?

I keep my snakes in cheap Walmart plastic tubs. I think I paid like $4 each for them. They are clear plastic with locking lids. Of course, I also cut an opening in the top and installed a screen, which you'll need to do if you plan on keeping your snakes in one for more than a few minutes at a time. Alternately, you could just drill a bunch of holes in it, but I found this wasn't nearly enough ventilation for long-term use.

This is only a 4 hour car trip to VA... once i'm there (i'll be there for 10 days) i'll set them up in there 10gal viv.

*Edit* Never mind. I missed a previous post and that answered my question.

you can use a regular cardboard box and put it inside the tank - that way, if they get out of the box, they can't escape

If the container doesn't have to be big, i have some things i used to use for feeding...

totally fine for travelling - just as long as they're safe
it's not a long trip
