    I was beginning to give up hope. I must have had mice. She looks like she has eaten something. Little worried. Hope no sickness comes out of it.

    Did you find any other signs of mice? I definitely hope she doesn't get sick

    Another story from my past: somewhere around 20 years ago I got my first bp. Come to think of it, the escape artist from my earlier story. I found a nest of rat pups in a shed in my back yard. I fed 3 of them to my bp and luckily no sickness. That poor snake had it rough compared to the standards of today. I kept it in an aquarium with a heat rock and not the slightest idea of the temps or humidity and the little bugger was very healthy, shed perfectly every time, never hissed or tried to bite and escaped more times than I could count. I had it for about 2 years and the last time it escaped, I never seen it again. I've found it inside the cone of a subwoofer a few times and deep inside my couch alot too. I've been woken up a few times by it too. I guess I was warm and comfy.

    A few rodent droppings but that is it.

    Put a couple traps out so maybe to can catch one and examine it for diseases. Unfortunately all you can really do is keep a close eye on her and keep the vet on speed dial... good luck and keep me posted if you don't mind

    You can take the snake out of the wild, but not the wild out of the snake!

    Also, imagine that rodents' surprise- and if he had any friends present, the rodent world will be abuzz with tales of monsters tonight in your yard !!

    That was all Common back then. My 20 year old Burm lived with a room Ambient of 65-74 in front of a Picture window in my Living Room that was 25x22 and Drafty with only a Heat Rock in a 8'x36"X24" enclosure for the first 10 years of his life. No thermometers, thermostats or Humidity control. My wife and I always had to help him shed..idk how many times he would slide the double pane glass door open on his enclosure and id wake up to him looking at me on the side of my bed Hissing Crazy at the Cat who was laying on me... We would also wake up with him clearing the Kitchen counter off, or pulling the Shower Curtain Rod down. Between that Burm and myself we used all that cats lives hahahahaha.
    When I look back it seems like another Lifetime... 18 years old, wild and not a ounce of sense hahahaha

    I once lost a fully grown corn snake in my parents house for two weeks! I did the flour trick, I put out water and some thawed mice, I looked everywhere. Found where he had gone to the bathroom under my brothers dresser. That was the only sign of him until one night I woke up to go pee and he was sliding across my bedroom floor! Talk about lucky lol
