I'm glad you found him! I'd love to hear the story from his point of view too.

I had a hatching corn escape before. I had just gotten her and didn't even have a meal in her before she got out. I was away on vacation so had no idea how long she had been out. She was gone for roughly 26 days before I found her making noise in a grocery bag.

My wife is fond of one of my corns and constantly lets it get cozy in her sweater pockets or the hood. He got out once and I found him snuggled into one of her sweaters sitting on the dining room table.

Well, at least now you know what to get them [the snakes] for Christmas, eh? :D

Little snake sweaters would be SO cute, if only they stayed on...

Holy crap, T!!! What an adventure!!! I'm glad you shared it, too. It will be a great learning tool for others. You always hear people say "keep snakes and you're going to be bitten eventually". I feel the same could be said for an escapee. Keep snakes long enough and you're bound to have an escapee at some point.

Keep your chin up, you're a fantastic snake Momma!!!

I'm so happy for you and Corny that the story has a happy ending!!!

Nothing feels so cold as an AWOL snake.
Good advice on a GRADUAL warm up.

Wow! I've been away all day and am just reading this!

Thank G-D you found him and were determined, diligent, intelligent, and resourceful.

Good job!

I love happy endings.

thank you all for the kind words. [emoji4] i feel so guilty but also just relief. it has truly been hell dealing with this but im glad it's over; never have i lost a snake for more than a few hours.

i just got home and immediately checked on Corny: yes he's still there lol.

also, the locks i bought:

@Phillydubs came in clutch there: i was running on adrenaline and worried momma emotions and he was so logical in talking me through what happened and what next. i felt bad blowing up his phone but it worked out lol [emoji28]

Oh wow, now this is a saga indeed! I'm so glad that you found him so quickly and in good shape. I'm thinking I should also invest in screen clips and stop relying on books and heavy tiles...
