Caught in the Act!! - Balls Escaping!

lol nice

I got a good story, I had a female that got out of a glass tank once, searched my apartment and nothing, she was no where to be found so I figured she got outside somehow. 2 months later I was sitting watching TV and my dog(mini aussie) drops something at my feet to play fetch. I leaned down to get it, and it was the missing BP! She was balled up, hungry but otherwise fine. A month later my pastel got out, my dog did the same thing 2 days later, found him for me XD

Yeah I have 3 stories. First one was my male normal. I happened to come home from work one day and was sitting at my computer when Stuff starts falling off the tv. I turn the light on and wouldnt you know there was my boy just sitting there. He just stared at me and didnt move until he realized I saw him then he made a break for it. lol.

This story is the miracle one. I screwed up and while clening I left the door latch open on one of my females tanks. Well after cleaning I fed her so I didnt check on her for about 2 or 3 days. When I went to check on her she wasnt there of course. Well I was positive that she had gotten outside cus I sleep with my door open(just a screen door) and we all know thats not much of an obstacle for a snake. Well after searching for about a week I gave up. One night I was asleep and was awoke by a bottle breaking outside. At firs tI thought Stupid cat. But then I couldnt go back to sleep so I went outside for a smoke. Once outside I cleaned up the glass and noticed this fat Ball just sitting there staring at me. Of course I had to do a double take thinking to myself this surly couldn't be Amber. But it was and after almost two weeks outside I luckily found her safe and sound.

Last one was actually after our last get together at RAuls (west coast jungle) I came home and took out my little cinny. After slithering all over the place for a while she just stopped moving and sat on my chest while i watched tv. Well I was tired and forgot all about the little one and fell asleep. The next morning I knew i forgot about her and strted searching. After a few hours with no luck I gave up figuring she could not have gotten outta my room and would show up eventually. Well later that night she did. Some how she managed to get on top of my curtain rod and got stuck to one of those fly paper roll things. It was just a little bit on her face but she was ok and has since shed. Well those are my three and hopefully my last "escape stories" Hope you enjoy.

Awesome. We've trained our dogs to treat our BP's like our cats, just a gentle sniff and that is it. Seems though that your pooch like balls too, lukcy that you've got an extra pair of eyes and a super snout to help track down escapees!:gj:

Reminds me of the time my BP stuffed himself inside my little brother's toy pirate ship that doesn't come apart... haha I am so lucky I even got him out of there. He could've stayed in there for awhile, but I suppose I could've just put the ship into his cage until he got out of it or coaxed him out with a mouse. Now that I think of it, that's probably what I should've done..

Just two weeks ago I lost my corn snake. I wake my sister up at 9 am to tell her her snake is gone... we had Dutch family over for two weeks and we didn't want them or our parents to find out.
So when our parents leave the house to go for a walk around the neighborhood with the family, my sister and I tear up our house looking for the little beastie. After double checking my sister's room, I give up and just then my sister finds her, wrapped up under a binder, behind a box under a couch!

He he:D

Just goes to show that you've got to look everywhere, even places you would not imagine:O:gj:

my George got out when I went on vacation, 3 days of not seeing me, he had to come out & look!! I was gone 2 weeks. My neighbor/friend who was watching my house & pets... called me frantically saying your snake is gone.

My cats were scared, stayed in the master bathroom the whole time. My friend had a search party while I was gone, all the other neighbors came over looking for George. When I got home, the next day I looked for him. FOUND him in my son's toy box all curled up, about to shed. he hissed at me at first, then was all happy I was home!

Aaaaaaaaaaargh!!! She did it again!!:taz::taz::taz:

Yup that is right! Delilah did another sneaky and managed to escape once again. She has definitely got her escape route sussed out now and is hell bent on tasting freedom any opportunity she gets.

Turns out she figured that if she can get her nose wedged in the glass window she can nudge the glass door open. I've photographic proof which I post later. Up til now I've not been using the locking mechanism ( for past 6 months) to keep her cage secure ( my bad:rolleyes:) but that will change.

This time we discovered her just as she got out and found her behind her cage, again just by the tip of her tail. So her cage was pulled forward and she was retrieved..... again we got the look :tears::tears::tears:

:weirdface:weirdface:weirdface

All I know is I'm paying for my wife's stay at the St. Regis if ours got out.
