Re: First escape?
I have a glass enclosure, but it has a mesh top. I tried the aluminum foil trick to seal in moisture, but once I found twist with a sunken in eye i said screw this and bought him a tub. Although I admit im not the best keeper, as I've had him for almost a month and I still dont have any thermometers or a hygrometer, cause of money issues, he's still given a UTH and a CHE.
I'll post pictures in literally a minute, I just uploaded them all to facebook.

Re: First escape?
Found out how he was getting out. Even though the metal grating is ziptied down 4x there was enough space for him to crawl out of. I ended up adding 8 more zipties in a complete circle around the grate

I was just about to tell you that he most likely got out through the mesh thing.
If you are up for getting another lid, you can just solder or drill holes in the side of the tub. Then there would be no way that he could get out. The bungee cords are probably over kill for a snake that small...
