    I would have left her at school, but I don't have a thermostat yet and I have to mist her cage 3-4 times a day to keep the temps down and humidity up. I know it causes stress to bring her but I figured bringing her would be better than having her get burned and dried up. Before I got her I let the cage go for a day or two and the temps shot up to well over 110 *eeps* As soon as I get a thermostat life will be so much easier for me and her...assuming I find her. And yeah, my mom will look out for her if I don't find her today or tomorrow, but that would be a 5 hour drive I would have to make to come back and get her. I'm just hopeing I can catch her tonight =/

    that sucks i know the feeling of having an escapee on the loose!

    a few weeks ago my little albino male was missing! he managed to rip through part of the screen top and i was stressing hard especially cuz hes a pretty big investment. but i found him within 10 mins of searching and he was under a couch about 5 feet from his enclosure.

    usually they dont stray too far away from their enclosure. keep looking and check the most obvious spots cuz sometimes they are hiding right infront of your face!

    the bait idea sounds good. maye even set up a warm spot somewhere as well to try to lure her out of hiding to get warm.

    good luck with your search i really hope you find her!

    Yeah, now I'm just trying to keep the mice from excaping :P I bought two mice and I only have one container so I'm about to go get another one so the little bugger will quit chewing through that paper container they give you. I have her hide in a small box with a heat lamp on the floor, and I guess all I can do now is search some more and wait *sigh*

    Hehe I'm kinda glad my mom went out of town today...she would die if she saw the kitchen :P Thats where Lilly's cage was, so I figure she is in there or the laundry room which is attached to the kitchen. SO....there is a mouse in a small cage in each room and I put flower on the floor incase I fall asleep hehe That way I can see if she came out to see the mice or not. And where she went if I miss her. I hope it works, and even if it doesn't:tears: I have alot of cleaning up to do tomorrow ^_^ Do they make snake size collars with little bells :giggle: ???

    Yea, I left my boy at home for a week all by his lonesome and he was fine. I fed him before I left and the day I returned. Besides, my mom wouldn't let me bring him home anyway.

    **Keep us updated about Lily>

    Re: Excaped!! =/
    haha yeah...I'm not letting her out of my site once I get her back...I'm going to put one of those key buzzers on her or something...so far the flour and mice isn't working :rainon: I was so sure I would be able to get her to come out since I know she is hungery, but once I started thinking about it, snakes are ambush hunters, they will lay there and wait for their food to come to them. I don't know that she will come after these mice. But I hope so, the longer I go with out hearing or seeing anything, the more bummed I get. I have to leave tomorrow with or with out her :tears: and that is the last thing I want to do. I don't know what else I can do to find her. :confuzd:

    I would have and will once I get a thermostat, but my cage temps and humidity are too unrelyable to leave her for anything more than a day.

    Haha, I got lucky there..my mom kinda freaked when she held Lilly for the first time, but now she is just as eager to show her off as I am...but she seems to be the only one in my extended family that likes her...hehe I got told several times " Don't you bring her over HERE!!" :P

    Well, the mice were out all night and I can't tell that she was out and about at all. If she was she went around the flour and waited till I went to bed. I'm about to tear the house apart again now that she is probably settled somewhere, but it's starting to look like I'm going back to Oklahoma with out a snake :tear: I've been finding lots of spiders *shudder* but no Lilly....I think she is hiding behind all those spider webs just to creep me out ^_^
