    weeping: ball python on the loose can't find anywhere
    well i went out to get some new bedding and stuff from local pet store when i came home i notice one of the lids on one of the tanks was lifted some how when i looked inside it was empty he was gone so my wife and i desroyed the house looking for him with no results i have a feeling he got outside because the bathroom that is connected to my snake room i'm redoing the floor and i think he got outside i'm so worried we looked for like 2 hours ripping the house apart i'm afraid if he did get outside the raccons and opossums will get him "weeping"

    keep looking dont give up, I was in a similiar situation couple weeks back when one of my ball pythons (spider) escaped my racking system, 6-8 hours later I found him in my boys room crawling around between their mattress and the wall

    I had a similar situation when my corn got loose but there was no chance it could've left the house. Keep searching mate, that's what I did with the corn. Keep us updated.

    Dont give up hope. Most of the time the snake is not far away. Usually crammed into a area you'd never think they'd fit into. Check in shoes, under chairs, and inside furniture like couchs.

    Sorry to hear about that....I hate that feeling, makes my stomach turn.

    Hope he didn't get out and you're able to find him

    He probably stayed in because of the cold(as stated above) so don't give up. :gj::gj:

    I agree. We all know their fondness for tight, warm spots. I'd check anywhere that may have a tight fit. Also, check under your refridgerator. I have heard of more than one being found there. Good luck and keep us posted.
