don't rule out any hiding places thinking that they able to won't be fit, we found the snow corn at work in a gap in the door frame. I'd had the entire unit upside down looking for him and had walked past him countless times! The door was only a foot away from his viv. |

So sorry to hear that, just replied to similar thread in General Keeping Info... try to think about all the small, dark places it could have gone to - starting from the viv, and working outwards. It's amazing the small places they can fit into - start with those.
Stay up at night, in the dark, and listen for rustling. Set up various traps...
Several people on here had a snake escape, and many have found them again, sooner or later, so keep looking, and don't loose hope. |

Oh No!! my snake got out a few months ago and it freaked me out, so I put a bunch of plastic bags around my room and set out a pinky and just waited in the dark, a few hours later I heard the bags moving and found my snake behind his tank, like 2 feet away from the escape point, so don't give up hope, keep looking. I hope you find him! |

Oh poor you! its horrid when they go walk about  don't give up,they do turn up-usually when they are hungry-try putting talk by the door-if snakey leaves the room you'll find funny squiggles in the dust.Good luck,hope you find her soon |

Lay down bottle traps, plastic bags (listen for rustling), keep looking. Think warm and dark! |
