hey all, sorry i haven't been around, busy finishing up a manuscript so writing is taking up much of my time. That and my darn angelfish decided to spawn so I have 100 baby angels I'm caring for.

so my ball python is adult- she was the one that had retained eyecaps, my original reason for joining the forums to learn how to help her, those are clear and great now. We've had multiple molts since then with no issues horray.

Ive been housing her in a 40gal glass tank, she has her water, aspen bedding, a couple hides and seems content. Sometime last night or early this morning she decided she needed some adventure. She forced the back half of the lid open, somehow breaking the glass which allowed her to lift a side and slip away! OMG! I didn't realize they were that strong!?!?!

I know where she is located, shes snuggled happily behind the working parts of an antique radio I am currently trying to figure out how to dismantle to get to her. But I need to know what to do to provide her with a tank that wont lead to escape and her having to face the 5 cats that are anxious for her to gain her freedom.

Any advice on a visually pleasing cage that would work for her is appreciated. What are some of your'alls favorites? What have you found to work best to avoid runaways? Glass obviously aint gonna work out for her, I'm going to convert that into an angelfish tank hahaha go figure.

thanks in advance all. I appreciate the help
