"well, he's going to a show let's say...at the downtown library or classroom. How can he be secure yet look professional."

You're asking a hillbilly? Ha! Ha!

My first reply was meant just to satisfy the paperwork on transport, but I understand your point. Just to clarify to everyone else that I'm not quite as much of a hick as I sometimes let on to be, here's what I actually do:
I place my Burms & Retics in a snake bag or burlap bag (depends on size) in which the end is folded & tied. I then place them in tubs and secure the lids with tape. I arrive early enough to allow time for removing tape & sometimes remove snakes from bags, but leave snakes in the tubs. Makes for faster, easier & more professional looking presentations.

The bottom line is that most tubs actually come with a lid that most people consider to be a "secure" lid because it snaps onto the tub. Securring snakes in bags inside of the tubs would be double-secured.

However, I'd almost be willing to bet that in FL's "biosecurity" world, they want to see "lock & key" somewhere. Perhaps a van, cargo trailer, etc, could meet that.

Thank God I don't have to contend with Floridiot Govmt anymore!!!
