This is a little long but worth it !!!!!
My brother bought a year old corn snake(still need to post pics of the little guy ) a few months back at a local show. I set him up with everything he needs being that it is his first snake and actually first snake in the house ever. 10 gallon tank with locking lid aspen hides water ETC. I tell him "TIM you have to make sure the lid closes and locks everytime you handle him"
SOoooo I get a phone call this morning on my way to work around 6am from my Mom saying the snake had got out and that it was INSIDE THE TV. Inside the Tv WTF ..... Well they have a 13inch Tv in the kitchen next to the tank. The power button on the Tv is missing so when my dad was watching Tv he saw it come out of the button. They were going insane. I was in tears driving to work laughing. I told them check the tank and sure enough it wasn't closed to lock.
So I gave them the BIG you should have listened to me and the BIG I TOLD YOU SO. and told them take a big storage tub and put the tv on one side and on the other side put some aspen and a hide with the heat lamp aimed on it. Figuring it will get cold and move to the other side. Well gosh darnet 45 minutes later they called me and said it was in the hide.
Had to share this.
