Will Short Periods of cold temps harm a dragon?

[Mealworm]

I was thinking of taking my beardie in to a church, along with some other animals, as educatiol animals and do a presentation. It is a little chilly outside though, do you think that just going from a car to a building in 50° weather would harm him? If so, would it be a good idea to not take him, or is there ways to keep him warm when going from the building to the car? I assume 30 seconds of cold wouldn't harm him, just double checking. Thanks!

Way too cold for a dragon under 12 months old.

An adult can tolerate 6-10 degrees Celsius but will be very lethargic.

That would not harm him a bit. I used to transport babies when it was zero outside. Keep warm in the car, straight in to the bldg., and set up in there. If need be cover with a light blanket....no problem at all.

You can also bring a clamp lamp for a heat bulb to use while in church.
