    How The ??????

    How in the world do you lose a 6ft boa constrictor?? I've had him for about 4 years now and he's gotten out a couple times. Every single time he goes under the couch.

    Well I've tore up my entire apartment looking in every single spot I could possibly think of. I can understand losing your car keys or a wallet but..... A6FT BOA CONSTRICTOR. Unreal! Haha I can't believe this!

    I can just picture myself waking up to gettin choked out lol

    In addition to checking in and under everything make sure you check all the shelves and ledges, especially in closets and such. Good luck!!!

    I have had luck catching escapee's by putting a rat in a tupperware in the room that the animal was lost in.... I usually find em trying to get in with the food.....

    Although I probably wouldn't want it to actually happen, it sounds pretty fun to be on a scavenger hunt for a six-foot snake

    Nope no luck yet. I gave up on looking. I've checked every single spot I could think of. I'm hoping I just catch him wondering around.

    I had a 3ft cornsnake get out about a month ago and I ended up finding him about a week later. I went to clean a tub in my 41qt rack and he was up in the back of it.
