Hi
Our 2 year old King snake has escaped (don't ask!). Does anyone have any tips or advice for finding him?
We tried leaving mice around the house to tempt him (he is a good feeder) but no result
thanks

Warm places. Concentrate within 6 foot around the viv. Check behind your fridge, oven. Inside computers.
Think of where is warm and a from where a snake can actuallyget too. Mine as ecaped or hours on end 3 times. Always turns up.He has ende up Inside of my subwoofer and inside a Live Pc!!
Just because you think he won't fit into little holes it's best to check.
How long has he been out for? |

Probably- but they better get ready because once the ferrets come home they have to run and hide or get eaten  |

| Dont give up hope I found my Honduran milk that was last seen going in under a shed 4 gardens down the road 9 months ago in my own shed last Saturday.It somehow survived the bitter winter and looks really well.All my snakes are now in rubs instead of vivs |

I found Haku in my fiances dressing gown pocket!! Good job I found him before he did.
Its incredible that they can get out of the tinniest of places. Hopefully I have made it as inescapable as possible, getting him out for more handling and letting him have a bit of an explore with out taking my eye off him too much.
I swear if he had hands I'd get him a baseball and a mitt! |
