Moving several states away and need advice

[EriaKadu1332]

Ok. So, I finally bred my Furcifer Viridis female (pics included for tax). This is a pretty big deal because it was a WC pair who initially wanted nothing to do with each other. Also, it's the only pair in the US who is successfully producing a clutch right now. Here's my problem:
I am moving from Colorado to Northern Cali in like a month and a half -- both for work and I'm getting married. She is due to lay in 2.5 weeks. I have a wine cooler incubator and have purchased a car inverter to keep the temps, but I'm really concerned about the vibrations for the two day trip. I cannot scramble these babies.
Advice on how to pack them to mitigate the shock and vibrations of life on the road? I do not have anyone I can leave the eggs with and no one in Cali I can ship her to prior to laying. TYIA

I don't have tips for you on the eggs. I just wanted to tell you what you already know, she is so beautiful! Good job on getting them to breed!

This reminds me of doing the "egg drop" test in high school. Except in my aerospace class, we put eggs in rockets. Maybe if you put a lot of cushions around the incubator to cushion the vibrations, you might be able to incubate the eggs without scrambling them.

I live in the Sacramento area with extra cages. I know that there are a few other dedicated members on here in other regions of northern California. I know we are strangers, but shipping might be an option if you are comfortable.

Congrats on the wedding and the new job! I think you will enjoy California--so many biomes to enjoy. Snowboarding one day and swimming in the ocean the next.

Thank you. I appreciate that. If I can't handle the thought of them getting scrambled, I might just reach out. ❤

after 3 weeks - 1 month of beiing laid they can't be transported..... until then tney can be transported if secure from movement... I use repashy superhatch put eggs in small container half submereged in moist superhatch with a soft sponge on top between eggs & lid to keep them snug in container...

Oh that's a good idea. I'll see if that would work.
