    You should really think about getting a locking top, ive never used those lock clips because ive heard they are kind of iffy. All snake enclosures need to be 100% escape proof imo. If you cant do anything to change your enclosure, I would suggest at least putting some textbooks on top of ur cage (if its a screen top you should have most of it covered anyways) Good luck!

    I used to have one years ago that always managed to escape despite having a locking lid with bricks on top too. I could never figure out how she managed to escape. At least she always went to the same place.... always in my closet in a box of books or in a shoe in the closet. As soon as we discovered her missing it would take less than a minute to find her lol
