Lost bp!!

i fell asleep with a snake out once, but luckily for me he curled up right near me in the curl of a chair cover. And that room was FULL of crap. it would have been a disaster.

to robin: I have never had another escape, and i would never let them escape repeatedly. That's so irresponsible i don't have words for it. You're supposed to protect your pets and take care of them the best you can, not do things like let them wander around on purpose. They are captives, you are supposed to take care of them. doesn't even sound like you really care. what you think it's a little joy ride for the snake to go out exploring? don't think he can get hurt, or accidentally get stepped on, or go down a drain, or get behind something and get stuck. But you just let them escape and think it's no big deal *rolls eyes*

anyway, back to the OP. THe snake is probably in an appliance. The best thing you can do is to unscrew the screws on the dryer or washer and lift off the top or the front panel. We just did this the other day to our dryer to clean it out. There is a LOT of space around in there for a snake to hide and access. think of the last place you think the snake would go and that is probably where it's hiding *lol*

Really? Is there REALLY any need for that comment right there??? Sheesh...

@OP, really hope your snake is alright I'm sure he's fine he's bound to have just found somewhere warm for himself!

Your right and i'm sorry about that.
I just tried to offer Info on how I Lure mine back when its out. Things just went south because of one line, about how I let mine roam free in the room sometimes.

Again I apologize and I hope they find their snake.

I understand things got out of hand, but lets try and focus on what this thread is about yeah? There's a lost ball python and his owner is worried and looking for a bit of advice...not arguments and nasty comments.

I do find it odd though that if he is in one that he has stayed there for like 3 days. I know bps are lazy but I thought mine was more active.

As a general rule, once a BP finds a place to hide, they won't come out until prompted by some stimuli, be that hunger, the need to thermoregulate, or some other stressor. Just because they're loose and have your whole house to roam around in, doesn't mean they will. That's one of several factors that can make re-finding them so hard.
