I once had an incident with grey rat snake hatchling that was missing for almost 2 months. We found him next to the gas cupboard in the end, still perfectly fine.
Hungry mind, but he was alright. Just found somewhere to curl up and got comfortable.
Chances are, she won't have gone particularly far away, and likely will have gone toward anywhere warm. Radiators, water pipes, airing cupboard etc are all prime spots.
Its also important that when you are looking for her, try to be calm and quiet. Lots of noise and moving of things will panic her and she will be less likely to emerge from her hiding place.
Corns are very hardy, and as distressing as it is to have one go missing, it is not the end of the world.
Kellog's advice really is superb in this matter. Just keep a keen eye out whenever you're in the house :)
Good luck!

Posted - 06/01/2011 : 00:22:31 get a empty water bottle cut round the lid and then invert the top and stick it firmly into place! brain a mouse and pop it inside leave it in the room with her viv and put it by the wall on the floor leave it over night do the same in the rooms you think she's likely to go into and do the same.keep it up for a wk changing the mice daily this has worked for ppl in the past hopefully she's not gone far and will smell the mice n you will trap her.xx hope that helps good hunting april |
