Transporting Question

Squirt

New member
So I am currently in school for Elementary Education and tomorrow I am going to my third grade classroom to observe like I do every week. Tomorrow is my day to introduce myself to the students so they can really start to know me. I asked the teacher of the classroom if I could bring in one of my critters. I decided I'd like to bring Squirt my corn snake in to show to the students. After all, tomorrow is Halloween. My question is this. I have a critter container to put him in but will he be ok in it for 3 hours without a heat source? I plan on keeping him in the critter cage inside a very nice travel bag that I have. The weather is getting cooler, so I just wanted to make sure he'd be ok for a few hours away from his heat source.
 
As long as you are just going from the vehicle directly inside (or not outside for long periods of time), I don't see it being an issue.

Corns are hardy, and they live naturally in North America (specifically the USA).
 
What NH93 said.
No long walks in the park, but into the car then into a building and most of the time away from home in a building of a general indoor temperature. Your snake will be fine.
 
I would like to suggest that you make sure that he's done digesting at the time...

I've taken mine out to meet people a few times, I just plan ahead (sometimes moving feeding day) so that they had time to digest and poop beforehand.

I'm pretty sure that having a snake poop on you won't leave a good impression on someone who is 'iffy' about snakes.

Kudos to you for the promotion/education regarding snakes :)
