    Lost and Found
    Last night I was feeding my 2ft (ish) long BP in a rubber made tub and I guess I didn't latch it all the way, and about 35 minutes after he started eating the last mouse (stupid store was out of adults so I had to get him a couple hoppers, which I don't think was enough, but that's another story, :rolleyes: Anayways, I went to get him out of the tub and put him back in his house, and NO SNAKE!!! we tore our house apart for an hour and a half. I even blew out the power to half the apartment when I was looking behind my aquarium and the surge protector came unplugged popped something. But then for some reason I opened the cupboard under my aquarium (for the umpteenth million time) and SNAKE!!! We was crawling into the baseboard heater!! I didn't want to yank him out so I grabbed my fish net and slowly pulled his head out of the heater, then he made a dash to hide behind the aquarium, but luckily his head went threw the loop of the fishnet handle and it pretty much turned into a snake hook and I lifted him out from behind there no with no problem!:D And the moral of the story is.... DUCT TAPE THE HELL OUT OF THE TUB WHILE THE SNAKE IS IN THERE!!! :gj: Or at least triple check to make sure the damn thing is latched all the way!:rolleye2:

    Also, a lot of people choose to feed in the same enclosure that houses the snake... maybe cuts down on this type of scenario ;)
    I'm so glad you found your snake! :D

    When I was feeding mine in separate tubs, I never left them out of sight for just this reason.

    Glad to hear you found him!
