    BP went into the TOilet?!?!?
    Has anyone had this happen?? When they lost their BP's do they go into the toilet???

    This morning i had woken up to go to the washroom and found that my toilet lid was down. I didnt remember putting it down but thought no more of it.

    Later on i found out my piebald had gotten out. SHE must have knocked the toilet lid down. She is in my room but my room has a bathroom in it.

    I've searched everywhere and i cannot find her. I know she was on the counter in my bathroom as stuff was knocked off but she is no where to be found.

    I'm freaking out cause i obviously flushed this morning.

    Could she be in the toilet? and what do i do?!

    Thanks sorry for the freaking out but im just a mess right now

    I highly doubt she crawled down the toilet. Keep looking. Do an intensive search within a three foot radius of where she escaped. That is normally where you will find them.

    Just look everywhere, your BP can be in the most unexpected places... when my baby ball escaped the first time i found him on top of my radiator which is like 4ft off the ground and the next time he escaped i found him on top of my computer, just look EVERYWHERE!

    Good luck

    I really doubt it... if you have a kick plate under your sink I would check there. Sometimes there is a gap where the kick plate meets the cabinet. A small snake could easily squeeze through there.

    Check laundry, bookshelves, tiny spaces you don't think the snake could fit. Literally check everywhere.

    Check behind the toilet tank, too. More than once, I've heard of a ball python wedging themselves up into that space between the tank and the wall.

    ANY space that seems too small, any gap that seems too narrow...check there. They will surprise you with the places they'll go and the things they'll fit into.

    thank you for all the support.

    My bedroom has a ensuite, so it has a bathroom to it with a bathtub. The sink has cabinets around it with draws.

    I know for a fact that she had been in my washroom as the toilet lid was down and my contact cases fell off the counter.

    As far as that i'm not sure where she is but i am cleaning and tearing up everything.

    There have been so many stories of people finding ball pythons in their toilets, they've got to have gotten there somehow right?

    Have you looked up under the Inside of the toilet bowl. Theres a lip there where a decent sized bp could wedge themselves in.

    Also, if you have a cabinet under your sink, feel up under the edge, sometimes there is a gap there.

    She is 500g so she's got somewhat of a girth to her.

    Luckily i always keep my bedroom door closed so she would have to be in my bedroom somewhere. Only way out would be the toilet =(
