I'm working on an informative speech to give to my class at school, decided I would do it on the Corn. Should be pretty awesome. I'm working on a power point now, and I'm toying with the idea of taking Aries to school for that one class. It should leave a lasting impression and hopefully give me an "A".

i've taken some of mine in to a nursery/out of school club and done a bit of a talk and let the kids handle them. most of the kids loved it, there was just one girl that didn't want to have a hold

At some point my girlfriend wants to take Izzy into her nursery to show off to the kids. They're a bit too young to handle her but it would be a great experience for them. Not sure how I feel about my snake being carted off to my girlfriends work without me being around though :( Might have to take a day off work some time so that I can have my mind at ease!

Are there any suggestions as to how i should transport Aries until that class? i'm thinking about putting her in a dark bag similar to a pillow case because I wont bring her enclosure obviously. thought i would then place that bag inside of my book bag, minus the books of course. whatever woulld be less stressful for her.

this might be COMPLETELY the wrong answer so dont take me on because more experienced people will know the best way but I think I would take my Cora in a Plastic lunch box with air holes in, not too big air holes incase she escapes.

Could you not carry a faun? That way, you can plug her in when you get there in case it's cold!

the best thing is a box that has a secure clip down lid that is the size of a hide. Put screwed up newspaper inside and this will help the snake feel more secure while being moved around.

As for what to do with her until the class, ask your teacher if there is somewhere safe that you can leave her where she'll not be disturbed or moved.
