Default transportation

hi guys i need a little advice when it comes to transporting bearded dragons.

im hopefully getting a couple next week which are about 50 mins away from me.

i have a polystyrene box to transport them in,

i was thinking of taking a hot water bottle with me to help kep them warm as i have to go on the M1 and we all know what can be like traffic wise.

do you think this will be ok or do you have any other ways that would be better

Thanks

Andy

on a 50 mile journey they will be fine to travel without heat or anything.

I'd keep them dark and fairly cool - it will make them go to sleep which is a much less stressful way to pass a journey than being warm, wide awake and thinking "what the hell's going on?!"

As long as the car is at a comfortable temperature they should be fine.
