Re: Been 4 months finally found her
Back in the day I had an argus monitor escape for 2 months one summer outside. One day I just happened to spot something sprinting at high speed across my neighbors yard and down the culvert. An hour later finaly got her out and yup I was bloodied lol.
Re: Been 4 months finally found her
We had a female BP get loose. She was also gone for 4 months and also lost no significant weight at all. Now it is possible in this old house that she caught a house mouse or two but unlikely as she was found on another floor of the house and we've never seen evidence of mice up there at all. How she got from a closed snake room, along a long hall, up a big set of stairs and into our master bedroom (that door is always shut) remains a total mystery to us. One day my husband found her coiled up quite comfortably on a stack of paperbacks she'd knocked over. She didn't appear dehydrated or thin or even stressed and quickly settled back into her tub. :)

Glad to hear that you found her. :gj:

My Yellowbelly got out one night and I searched the following morning and found him in the pantry underneath my carpet cleaner.

Re: Been 4 months finally found her
over th years I had snake get loose fromthe snake room and they always were found in good shape. I had one get outside due to a hole in the ac ducts. That bp was fine and when return to her cage was just as happy as befoer her 2 week game of hide and seek.. sadly she did die a few weeks later the vet thought she may of gotten a mouse that had been in some rat posion..so she was posion too .
Re: Been 4 months finally found her
Yay! Always so great to find a missing snake.
My irian jaya carpet python escaped one weekend when he was still little. I found him in a hat that I had hanging on the corner of my curtain rod in the same room, haha. More disconcerting was the baby cornsnake that was gone for a full month. He escaped from a tank on the second floor of the house and I found him in the basement office. Go figure.
My bearded dragon escaped not too long ago. He was gone maybe 5 mins before I noticed and made it about half way across the room. Lizards are so much easier to find. :D
