    I looked in the 5x2x2 only to discover my little runt is missing! I'm not sure how on earth it could have gotten out! I've just torn apart my room without finding my little baby, dang. My room is located in the basement, if it has left my room I am screwed because the basement is a mass of clutter with endless hiding areas. I'll probly never find it if it got there. This is Maine...it is cold.....the basement is freezing. Crap!

    Sorry to hear this. I would'nt give up hope. I would look for him in the warmest possible place's in the basement. Crank the heat up in the room and try to give him a chance.

    If I turn up the heat and she is near it, she'll sizzle. BRB, time to tear to room up.

    I searched as hard as possible, I do not think there is a snow ball's chance in hell it is in the room anymore.

    Then again, I said that when the last one escaped, and when I went to go hold the others I found it in a folder. Lets hope this turns out just as well.

    I have had lots of escapes, including one last week. I've always found them within 10 feet of the cage. Maybe I'm lucky, but if I were you, I would concentrate on a close proximity to the cage.

    leave out water and a heat pad with a hidebox over it and check it through out the night
    that worked well when i lost one of my cron snakes
    i found it within the second day in the hide box
    sorry to hear this has happened and i hope you find it
    good luck!!!

    Lets hope I'm lucky, i got the heat craked after checking the heater for her, and I'll be thawing a mouse. the good thing is if she is outside the room then the RI setting in will cause her to wheeze a lot, possibly helping me find her.

    I have 2 cats outside my room at all times...

    my cats would love to get ahold of one of my snakes and i'm pretty sure the cat would win!
    again good luck and try the heat pad and hide box thing it worked well for me

    Try to look along the walls and wherever there is a dark spot of floor. Is your cage mounted up on something like a dresser? I would definately look behind it and along that entire wall. Snakes like to find a wall or something smooth to kind of direct them where they're going. I've never had an escape, but these tips seem to have helped people in the past. How big is he? I would look ANYWHERE that looks "comforting" to a snake i.e: an open backpack or bag, a shoe, a box, just look EVERYWHERE!!! But I know you are! Good luck!!

    Hope is lost. I scoured every single part of my room, every crevice about 5 times. There is no chance it is still in the room, it must have gotten out into the basement. It's luck from now on, lets hope.
