Search all tight warm places. Also try putting out a heating pad with a FT rat on it. Sprinkle flour around to see if he is moving around at night. Good luck.

I have found many of my escapees with 10 feet of their homes. Sometimes I had to look 3 or 4 times.

I found Pandora 4 feet off the ground on a shelf on top of my desk
Look EVERYWHERE - even in places you wouldn't expect
Someone already suggested flour...
Try putting a rat in a container in the center of the room, turn all the lights off and leave crinkled plastic bags that make noise in random places - (hopefully) eventually it will turn up
Good luck and keep us updated :)

I found my cinny on top of a curtain rod about 6 feet off the ground I still have no idea how she got up there. Theres nothing around she could get on top of and I doubt she could climb up a curtain. Pretty impressive for a hatchling.

Have you checked under the fridge? And if you have a washer and dryer in your house, check there too.

You'd be surprised! I've witnessed one of my ball pythons climbing 3ft up a cable wire!!! He would go vertical, wrap the second half of his body VERY TIGHTLY around the cable, then he would go vertical again and wrap his upper half of his body around the cable an pull the rest of his body up... And repeat. It was awesome to watch! Their strength is remarkable so if your snake somehow grabbed around the entire curtain, it probably got up that way!
