Moving 14 hour drive

No real issues...just don't leave her in the car. She can travel in her viv, in a plastic bin (with the lid taped down tightly), in a pillowcase, in a Kritter Keeper--whatever works best for you. No need for heat or water, but don't feed her for a few days prior to leaving.

and DON'T LEAVE HER IN THE CAR! (gets too hot)
 
driving straight through so put some bedding down and tape lid shut?

She will ride upfront with me its a big budget truck im NOT putting her in the back

Im only topping for gas and pee breaks so she wont be in the car by herself very long
 
I when i moved out to Texas a few years back I packed my snakes with lots of bedding in a bin that snapped shut. Whenever i got out of the car i made sure that i was for no more than 15 mins, and in shade, or at night, and left them near the cooler because of that light cool air that comes off of the cooler. I'd rather have them get slightly cooler than hot where it can damage them pretty badly ):

I dont think it should be too much of a big deal :)
gl! and have fun moving, its always exciting!
 
I recently moved to another state, I put my snakes in small tubs with paper towels and drove straight through. Everybody was fine. I also had my dog and two cats with me, that was fun! I'll be doing it again in about two weeks too! :D
 
I'd probably put her in a pillow case tied or taped off and then inside a tub with a lid that snaps shut (air holes of course). The pillow case will keep her padded and calm(er) and the tub is for safety.
