    Albino Cali on the loose

    Went up last night to feed the snakes to find that my Cali king had made a drastic bid for freedom. It appears she escaped by pushing off one of the vent covers and escaping out the top onto the viv and god knows where from there. Only discovered this about half eleven last night and i was also dying from a horrible hangover, so locked up the room and told the wife to keep the door locked. I have the pleasure of getting home from work and spending the evening looking for the little beast.

    Wish me luck

    Man that stinks!
    I hope you can find him with no problems.
    My corn got out once but he didnt go far. My mom found him next to the TV, but he wasn't happy when I picked him up. He made that rattle noise with his tail.
    I would start by looking around the warmest parts of the room.

    Why is it called 'after dark' when it really is 'after light'?

    Re: Albino Cali on the loose

    Cheers Jonny, found the litttle blighter. She was peering at me from below the sofa when i got home from work last night. She wasn't too happy when i went to pick her up tho. I have never seen as much musk come out of one snake in all my life, plus i got tagged about god knows how many times but alls well that ends well

    That happened with my friend with his Milksnake, but fortuneately, he found her just as you did. Congrats for finding your Albino Cali! P.S. Do you think she'll get used to you eventually?

    Naughty girl! But I'm glad you recovered her! My Florida king Rhy escaped once and went... less that a foot from his tank. He curled up in an open chopstick box on my desk and went to sleep.

    Thanks folks, this is second attempt at escaping. For a snake she can be quite cunning lol,

    Onua Nuva, my albino cali is probably the most tolerant of all my snakes. The reason she musked so bad was because i basically lept onto her before she disappeared below the sofa again. Gave the little girl quite a fright
