    Have you taken a walk around the primeter of your house? Not that he will be sitting out in the open but just to look for tracks or turn over any toys or coverage that he might be in. Maybe even under if you have skirting?

    Re: escapee

    no didnt think he could possibly get out but now that u mention it i will go walk around and take a look. this is bugging me even though she really pis*** me off cause she thinks i need to take care of hers too cause she aint nothing but a bum and if my wonderful stepdad comes home and tells me i have to get rid of mine over her all heck is going to break loose cause ive put effort into making sure none of mine can get out i check on them everyday just to make sure then she brings hers up here cause she dont have anywhere else to go cause she is a bum and wont get a job i will be very unhappy

    I'll bet he's still in the room. They can get into everything....like if you have a tear in the bottom of your box spring they can get into that, reclining chairs, the backs/bottoms of sofas, wedged between a piece of furniture and wall, under a speaker

    Re: escapee

    Remember to check high places too, like the top shelf of any closets. I'm fairly certain that as soon as a ball excapes they grow wings to ensure they won't be caught. Little turds!!

    I would sure be telling my parents my sister needs to get rid of her ball if she can't take care of it. That's a bunch of diddly that you get blamed for her being unresposible.

    How close is feeding day? Have you tried scenting it out with a rodent?

    I have only lost a big snake (a long time ago) but honestly, I think they are all usually found within 5 feet of where they escaped. I would double check everything super close to the enclosure. Almost all the threads I've read end with "I found him XXXX" and it is usually right where you already looked before. Good luck!

    Regards,
