I moved from Florida to Texas with my Whites, a bearded dragon and two cats~ I drove there 17 hours. I had a clear carrying cage with a small hand towel in it. As long as he saw me we were good My beardy I had him in his tank in my back seat he was on his log like the king of the world hahah. They will be fine My fiance and I even drove his turtles 27 hours from Philly to Texas.. it can be done!
