My ball python escaped last night, and I can't find her anywhere!!!! Anyone else lose a snake before? Got any tips for tracking her down?

[InitialDriveGTR]

tie some string to a bunch of mice and go fishing?

[rmorse]

Lol, I'm tempted to tie a mouse to a tiny stake in the ground, like Jurassic Park style.

How did she get out? Check the warm spots - they need heat! Leave her cage open and keep the light on if she can access it.

I've never lost a snake, but my 18" Bearded Dragon was lost outside once - I got her back too.

My girlfriend just called me, SHE FOUND HER!!!!! She was coiled on the back of the fridge, Brit (girlfriend) was walking by and saw a little snakey coil poking out lol.

Still no clue how she got out, lol. We're putting her back in her cage and going to watch her lol.

You need to better secure the top to your snake enclosure / aquarium and make sure the edges seal tightly whenever you open and shut it. My suspicion is she squeezed through a crack or made her way through an opening in your cover (if yours has one).

fuck snakes.

The tank, snake, and girlfriend in question:











You can see my bearded dragon cage I made in the background.

All the time when I had mine. Would pop up in the weirdest places, was funny when guest were at the house and he would slither out from under the TV or something.

I see gaps at the top of your enclosure that could have easily facilitated escape.

AHHHHHHHHH I FUCKING HATE SNAKESSSSS!!!! no offense they just scare the piss outa me... I know they are coming as I scroll down the page and I still go AHHHH and jump a bit every time... maybe cause they like to fuck shit up & I like to fuck shit up is why we dont get alone... for reals... I was taking a piss in the patio bathroom at my buddys and he found a snake in the grass and put it under the gap in the door... not only did I scream like a little girl I ran out with dick in hand and like I was on the volunteers fire department spraying anything end everything.

that and always had a fear of taking a pee when I was little and a snake jumping up and biting my junk off cause my brother was an asshole and told me they live in the sewers and I assumed my toilet was like the narnia closet to the sewer... ahhh and after looking at your cage (an armoire) someone left it open or it did some kinda Bruce willis elevator shit and pushed up the ceiling in it

Oh hell, I'm dying here of laughter Kurt. Someone seriously needs to write a blog or a book entitled, "Crazy things my friend KurT5 says" or "You can't walk in my shoes or piss in my Volvo: the Kurt Volberg story"

['12brotruckmofo]

Glad you got the Python back.

I agree 100%. That's where I think she got out. I'm planning on running mesh inside, along the top. Do you have any suggestions for snake proofing?

I wasn't talking about the snake.....

[Hanks]

At least he didn't get into your car vents, with the car running and the keys locked inside.
