Hi guys! It's been awhile (a very LONG while) since I've lurked around BP.net. How IS everyone?!
I'm posting today because I'm at work having a panic attack and I know that you guys are probably the only people in my life who can understand completely. Wednesday late afternoon I unlatched Auryn's tub to get him more water, and after I replaced it--for the first time ever--I forgot to re-latch the tub.
Because Auryn hasn't been eating for me for over 3 months, I've been trying to bother him only every couple of days for water changes and once a week to try and feed him. When I went to check on him this morning, I found his tub empty. Auryn has been with me over two years and this is the first time I've ever been careless enough to forget to latch the tub. I searched this morning around the tub & in the computer room (where he lives) for half an hour before I had to leave for work.
I'm SO worried about him. He hasn't been eating for me; I've tried F/T, P/K, and Live (I currently have 2 mice who have been living with me for months). Outside of Auryn's tub, the condo I'm living in doesn't stay BP-friendly warm. I have to work till 6 tonight and my boyfriend works from 10AM - Midnight, so I can't ask him to look for Auryn during the day today.
For those of you who have had snakes go MIA, could you give me some search advice so I can relax a little and have a plan of action for when I get home? In the past, I've read on the forums to search EVERY nook and cranny near the enclosure because they typically don't go far. Has this been your experience?
