I'm going on a 5 day trip. The car ride is about 6 hours. My mom and sister don't want to watch them so I either have to bring them along or stay. The chicks will be 11 or 10 days by the day we plan to leave (1 week and 4 or 3 days old). I just planned to keep them in a cardboard box on my lap,with a little bowl of water and food. They should be alright, right? I mean companies mail one-day olds. Plus, there are 5 of them. I plan to put those hand warmer things you use when your skiing in the box if they get cold. Think that would work?
