They really will take ANY chance they can to make an escape! My first escape was my boa, and it was right before we had to take her into the vet. She was in a tub and I opened one side: no boa. Opened the other side: no boa. I spazzed out and my boyfriend and I started looking EVERYWHERE in my room. I was in the middle of looking under my bed when my boyfriend went, "Look!" and I turned my head to the side where my mini-fridge was (this thing was a legit mini-fridge, not one of those dinky "can only fit 3 cans of soda in it" kinds) and lo and behold, she's sticking her head out from underneath it like "What's all the fuss about?"
Loki's escaped once but we caught her in the act and back into her tank she went.The second time my boa got out she was super easy to find (since she's huge and can't fit most places in the apartment) but I was kind of upset because it was because someone opened the doors/left them open (and I was upset because it could've been me that did it), and we live in an apartment. If people freak out over a little ball python in their apartment, I can only imagine the commotion a 6.5ft, 10+lb boa would cause.
