    Silly airheaded oldest daughter.........

    My daughter who is 12 made a mistake on sunday and left not just one but both tubs her corn snakes were in open and they have gone missing. I have looked everywhere and cant find them. Do you have any other suggestions besides what is found in the Loves book on how to find them? SHe loves them but was silly in forgetting to close the tubs. IM taking them under my complete supervision as soon as they are found and adding them to my rack system in my new reptile room. so this doesnt happen again.

    thanks,
    Beauty the BP

    Oh she must be so upset, poor thing! I know it's frustrating and we are always on at our Beth who is also 12 about making sure Emi is locked down tight but even adults forget too. I bet your daughter is frantic. Hoping you find them soon. I don't have any great suggestions other than to look very close to their enclosures in places you figure there is no way they could fit into. Also places that are warm or get the sun a lot during the day as they may come out to bask. A friend of my hubby's found his adult corn that had been missing for months....it suddenly showed up curled in a patch of sunlight in the middle of the diningroom floor. Fingers crossed that you find the two escapees as fast as possible.

    Also, the room they were in, youll wanna close the door, look everywhere inlcuding the place youd think you'd never find them. Just go room to room and hopefully you'll find them. Was their any doors or windows open when they escaped? Sometime though you'll have to wait it out to find them.
