Hi,

I've had my carpet python (Jungle Jag crossed with Irian Jaya - very cute!) for a few months now. He's about a year old and I love him - the most social snake ever, he loves meeting people and hanging out with us at home!

Recently myself and my boyfriend have arranged to take this weekend away (3 nights) and I suddenly remembered about the snake! I don't have a timer for the thermostat or anything! There is a place which looks after snakes where I might be able to take him but it's a bit out of our way and I don't think I have time to get him there.

So my question is, is leaving him on a low temp (say 22 degrees C) for a few days going to do him any harm at all? I really don't want to do anything to upset him but it's going to be difficult to get him to the "snake sitting place" in time now. Please help!

Thanks so much

Caz
