HELP: my baby bp crawled into a food scale

I definitely wouldn't run water in it. It may take the better part of a day but eventually he'll crawl out. I would pick up some food for him and try to lure him out with that as well. If he's even a little hungry live prey would draw him out real quick.

UPDATE: I noticed a small structural weakness on one of the corners of the scale and just ended up prying the side off with pliers.

I guess I need a new food scale anyway.. That this guy can't crawl into :colbert:

I have this one:

Works great, not terribly expensive and nowhere for a snake to hide! If they outgrow the bowl, just get a bigger mixing bowl and tare it with that on the top. With an 11 pound limit, there aren't many BP's out there that it can't handle.

Lol those pictures are great, especially the first one where just his little face is showing. Absolutely adorable. Now you know, don't take an eye off that baby for a second when he's out of his enclosure. I had the same problem with a tokay gecko when I was sixteen. Turned around for one second with the cage door open and when I turned around he was outside the cage and on the back end. He ended up diving under my dresser and it took two days to get him out (I had a very cluttered room and it was a heavy dresser).

I'm late to the party...but this is SOO how I pictured myself fixing this issues when I read the title. Disbelief, a smidge of oh no!!!!! and then look for something to pry the darn thing apart.

So glad you got him out!! And kudos for finding that weakness!

I'm so glad you got him out okay! I have to say, I got a pretty good laugh out of this, though... Those sneaky buggers, I guess I'm pretty lucky I've never had to pry anything apart to get them out of somewhere they shouldn't be! Haha, glad the little guy is okay, sorry about the food scale though. ;P
