Assuming you would like tips on travelling with a pet snake:
When travelling with your snake it is important to have a secure and comfortable container for them. A well-ventilated plastic box or aquarium with a secure lid works well. Line the bottom of the box with paper towels or newspaper and add a few inches of clean water for your snake to soak in if desired. You may also want to add a hiding place such as a cardboard box for your snake to feel secure.
Your snake will need to eat and drink regularly so be sure to bring along appropriate food and water. It is also a good idea to bring along a small first-aid kit in case of any emergencies.
When travelling by car keep the container with your snake in the back seat away from direct sunlight. If travelling by plane be sure to check with the airline in advance to see if they have any restrictions on travelling with snakes.
Most importantly enjoy your trip and don’t forget to spend some quality time with your pet snake!
