Lost Ball Python

[snunior]

What can i say besides lost....maybe escapee.

Okay so today when i went to chack if my snakes were there my ball python was gone.

I need suggestions asap on how to find her.
No joke i was crying i really love this snake.

If it has not been lost for a long time, Most likely it is within a 3 ft radius of the enclosure. Check under and in everything in that area first...the bp may also seek warm spots so look near electronics.

Hope you find the little one.

Thanks
I have allready checked mostly everywere in the room i keep her in the problem is the room is a complete mess. What i havwe done is put newspaper everywere in the room and i will stay up until i hear her (hopefully ill hear her) tomorow i am removing my shelves....because i am moving so i hope she will come up.

They usually do not wonder off too far from their enclosures. Search at night. Leave water bowls so that she can drink. Sprinkle flour along your door ways so you know if she crosses rooms. Put plastic bags along the walls so you can hear her at night. Once again search at night and leave plenty of water! Good Luck! I once lost one of my bps only to find her again four months later. Keep ur hopes up!

look up high as well as the ground, when mine got out I found her on the top shelf of the closet, I have no idea in heck how she made it up there but she did

yea my houdini loves to give me heart attacks, everything in his cage is as it should be and its completely secure, but somehow he seems to still get out every so often (hence the name Houdini ) hes normally under my couch or in our shoes, try checking those, for some reason they seem to love stinky feet smell!

[snunior]

eh, still no luck.
I pray that she didnt get thru the vent.
Maybe ill find her soon because i am moving this week.


I HOPE I FIND HER

look by your refrigerator and water heater. anything that puts off heat. when i was younger i found mine on a lower level then i had him right next to the refrigerator. careful if you move the fridge so you don't hurt her.

I've lost snakes before, only found one of them. Though the smaller they are the easier it is for them to get outside. How big is he/she?? Try staying up late with all the lights off, but one heat lamp and hang it off a chair near the floor so as to make a basking spot. You can use a smaller light to read by if you need, but no others!! Turn all the heat off and he/she will probably come. This is the only way I have ever found a snake that has been gone awhile.
