I am moving across the country (3-4 day drive) and trying to decide if it would be less stressful to bring my two Tokays in the car or send them in the mail. I'm already bringing my snake in the car (nobody will let me mail her) but the geckos are so much more sensitive to their surroundings. Which is worse... 3 days of stress with me on the drive or 1 day of stress handled by the post office. I'm thinking the post office might be the best choice for them, but let me know what you think or your experiences with transporting Tokays.
You could bring them in the car. you should maybe just blackout their tank with black paper or something atleast then you know they won't be thrown around
id take them in the car as im sure you will be more careful then a post office.Id put black paper around the whole tank so they wont be disturbed by their surrondings.
last week i moved into a new apartment.. only 5 miles away so i just left my tokay in the 90gal tank with all the fake foliage still on the wall giving it something to hide under... i fed him a bit more than needed a week or so before the move to make sure if he was stressed to eat afterwards. know anyone close to where you moving?? mail it to them 1st class? you'd deff have more intimate care in the car for your tokays... 3-4 days is alot of stress though... good luck! hope for the best...
i bought mine from budapest which is 700 km from my place, in romania, the transport took 2 almost 3 days, he was just fine, eating the second day i arrived.
