I will be going on vacation in August for about 3.5 days and am taking Franklin with me so I'm just looking for any advice that may be helpful. I plan to take a large Rubbermaid with coco coir (that's what he has in his regular enclosure), a small spider plant, his lamp, and maybe something else to hide under. Since the holder for his lamp isn't easily moved to another enclosure, I planned to bring a coat hanger and some string/rope to make a temporary holder of sorts, not exactly sure how it'll work but I'm going to try to figure something out.
Most of what I feed him is from the garden at my house or other weeds I've planted that I won't be able to take, so I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with something similar. I could try picking a bunch and trying to refrigerate them like I would grocery greens, but I'm not sure how long they would last. I also bought some mazuri small tortoise diet recently but I haven't tried to feed it to him yet. I think I recall reading that pellets shouldn't be a big part of the diet, is this true? How would that work if I was only using it for a few days?
I've probably missed something I'm sure, but any travel advice would definitely be appreciated!
