Just out of interest, where were the airholes on your box? Just thinking that if they were in the lid and the boxes were stacked.......? May be way out, just guessing.
More deaths on coach 2 have been reported on Captivebred too.

Again, sorry about your losses.
Can you post the link so i can have a look please

In the poly Box ? That ammount of animals would need a lot of ventilation. I have been on the hamm show once and enjoyed it but I did not buy anything as I am aware that to put your animals in a polybox in a coach hold has an element of risk.

The organizers do a fab job and I know that they do everything to help everybody.

Does anybody put any min/max thermometer's in their boxes ? I would as you can have a trial run as you go out there.

I think next time everybody should have a thermometer in there box and then If there were any alarming temps going out there then something might be able to done about it on the way back.
