i was just curious, what do you guys use to keep your ball pythons from escaping. custom cage/top? something heavy sitting on the top of the cage? a sign that reads "please no escaping" and just hope he has manners?... im just asking because my snake has a 20gal aquarium with a screen top... i customized the screen top with a 2" hasp and a padlock on the front and back where when both locks are locked i cant even move the screen top at all.. i also have about 6-8 pounds of rocks evened out on the top and my ball python STILL escaped... earning the name houdini .....

i found him a couple days later slithering around by my bathroom and now theres 17 tons of cement keeping him from getting out.
boy is it gonna be hard to open that lid when i gotta throw in a mouse
