    Well Monday morning is rack cleaning day, so as I was cleaning I got about half way done when I came to my 08 1.0 spider. I have no idea how but he is gone, defintely not in his tub. Obviously its my fault, when I checked on him lastnite I must have not shut his tub properly. I am devastated right now, for he was my favorite snake almost like my best friend. I dont even know what to do with myself right now. I am considering selling all of my snakes off now, because he was what kept my interest everyday. This sucks.:(

    Check any and all warm areas in the house - that's where they head.
    My female Rainbow has gotten out a few times - the first time - I was in the same boat as you - then I found her under the computer desk below the CPU box - where the heat was. The next time she got out - I looked there first and sure enough.....
    Keep your chin up and go find that snake!

    Man search EVERYWHERE and I hope you find him! :please:

    Don't sell the rest of your collection, you will regret it later.

    Good Luck!

    I've read stories about people finding their snake months or even a year later. Don't give up hope man!

    You can place flour lines in each doorway so you know which room he's in, set up a heating mat in one room with prey on it, etc. etc. Do some searches and I'm sure you'll find tons of ways to help find him.

    Listen, I thought I'd lost my cat once (mind you, indoor cat). I looked everywhere, cried, put up posters (all this in a few hours' time) & he was hiding behind the TV in the armoire the whole time!

    It'll be a bit harder to find this guy, but I'm sure you will. Check all the warm spots. You can also leave some prey lying around (in a box if alive) & that might get his attention.

    Don't sell off your collection. You'll kick yourself later when you find your little guy.
