Sure. No problem. If they can survive several days in the mail, they can
survive 12 hours on the road. Be sure to use a styro, and if the day is as
warm as most have been lately, you may want to drop a couple of ice cubes in
there now and then. Remember, as temperature goes up, metabolism goes up and
dissolved oxygen goes down.
