Been 4 months finally found her

[btrout56]

I have a %100 het pied femal ball python I bought from Allen @ bigdaddyballrom.com last year and after feeding my snakes one nite I forgot to latch her tub and she got out. I was so mad at myself. I completely took everything out of the room twice to look for her but nothing both times, so I kinda gave up after a while. today while I was at work my son (age 6) called me on my cell, he was so exited I couldnt hardly understand what he was saying at first. He found her in his sock droor in his bedroom. I dont know how she got in his door but I am so happy to have her back. She was so thirsty and I am sure she is hungry also. I am going to let her settle in her hide tonite and try and feed her tomorrow...Thanks for reading my post I had to tell someone...lol. Has anyone ever had something like this happen to them? I would like to hear how long was missing and where you found your little friend...

i lost a 4 foot normal female for about 3 days
came home one day and somehow she had climbed up my blinds and was sitting on top of the window just chilling lol

Congrats on your find!!! If I were an escaped snake, the sock drawer might seem like a nice place to hide.

Has she lost any significant weight while she's been gone? Perhaps she's found some food while she was missing.

That is whats crazy....Last time I weighed her just over 4 months ago and she was 374 grams. I just weighed her and she is now 368 grams do you think she found something or is it possible for her to maintain her weight that long?

[Ladydragon]

it could be possible. remember their metabolism is much slower than ours. If she did find something to it.. more power to her.

Awesome!
I lost my corn for 2 months. She showed up in the hallway, hungry and a little thin. My cats had their backs up and were trying to figure out what she was. They didn't hurt touch her at all. They are inside cats and I think were more scared than she was.

congrats on finding her. i had a corn missing for 8 months. boy was that a long time.

I lost a 2 ft corn once when I was a kid and also found it in my sock drawer??? Note to self: Always look in the sock drawer first if you ever lose a snake!!
