Re: Escaped Ball, Need help.
WHat is ur basement like, as in furnature and what kinda walls and doors and such, and what tep. (aprox) is it?
Re: Escaped Ball, Need help.
My basemsnt has 2 bedrooms beside each other. its about 68 degrees down there. k S is for the storage area its a big place with a lot cases when we moved from a big house to a smaller house so lots of cases and bags so quite impossible to look in there plus i'll have to crouch and go in cause its like a crawl space. T is for table the smaller T is for tank on the drawer. D is for drawers. B is for boilers and those sort of things. W is for washroom. and C is for couch. any suggestions. i left a big barrel of hot water with a lid on it and his cave i bought him in the left side storage entrance. I also put a non - poisonous mouse trap on each side of the storage entrance and a live mouse in a cage in my room which is the middle bedroom. Thanks for all your help

Ah! Just make sure he couldn't get caught in the mousetrap; I am assuming you put those outside though.
Re: Escaped Ball, Need help.
the mousetraps are for snakes also, at least thats what it says on the package.

Never give up and always look twice in the same place. Have you considered sleeping in the basement? They usually come out and about at night, if you are light sleeper you will probably hear it moving specially is you leave plastic bags around
Re: Escaped Ball, Need help.

If its immobile due to being cold...then you'll just have to knuckle down and look for it. Resign yourself to getting into those crawl spaces and digging out boxes and methodically tearing apart the basement to look everywhere it could possibly have gotten.
Re: Escaped Ball, Need help.
lol i also don't want my mom to know that its missing so tearing the whole basement apart is kinda bait.
Re: Escaped Ball, Need help.
All right, now i m just spitballing here but,
First I would check the adjasent room to the one the cage was in, and if anyone sleeps in there watch out for any reptiles on them if they wake up! LOL. I would perticularly check the bed.
Second i would check the Storage room. Dont know how but u gonna have to eventually if u dont find it.
Third I would check the boiler room. Anything emitting heat will do.
If none of those work I would double check the storage room. ANd Pray a little more, LOL.
I m baseing this chain of events on the fact that the bp will travel along the wall since it dosent want to be out in the open.
And just remember that i was just thinking like a snake, also i was wondering if is all carpet or tile or concrete or a mixture. I dont think a snake would want a cold belly since it is like 1/8 of its body, lol.
but GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!
