    How high up is it? Usually they are fine with short falls, especially if it's carpet.

    An entertainment center with electronic giving off heat?
    1st place I would look right there in a cool room any dark tiny spots around those it can wedge itself into.

    You could also place a live mouse or rat(whichever you are currently feeding) in a container the snake can't get into in the room to attract the snake.

    Moved almost all of the furniture and still no snake... is it very likely he could have squeezed under the door?

    Help!! Ball got out last night!

    If you have night stands or any other furniture like that sometimes they have areas in the bottom where they are not completely solid and they will curl up under there, my corn got out one time and I couldn't find him. I thought my night stands were solid but I lifted them up and he was curled under it not five feet from his cage!! Good luck

    Its about four feet and onto carpet. I am praying he is still in the room, because this is a big house. I need him to be in this room and find him before my room mate does!

    Is there a gap under the door?

    Check the nooks and crannies of your entertainment station, he may be there. Especially if it's warm.

    Sorry I didn't see your post first. How big is he and how big is the crack? I don't think it would try to get out of the room unless there was absolutely no where for it to go!

    He is about three feet long, and there is about a 3/4 inch gap, I am betting he could get under it, but praying he didn't...

    I mean nothing by it, and don't want to be too harsh, but to be frank and straight forward with you: the time spent describing your house and setup here, and back and forth about doors and having to clarify size, this is all valuable time that you could be finding the snake before he moves deeper into a nook you cannot find.
    Unless you find one of us to be a neighbor in your locale to come over and help search, we're not going to be able to help you find your snake.
    For the sake of having the best chances of being found, get off the computer and search every nook and cranny, drawers in dressers (don't just move furniture, look indide it), undersides of thing... EVERYWHERE big and small, infront of and behind things.
    This just feels like when a person posts a question about a sick snake, every response says "go to the vet" and teh poster waits until the last minute to make a vet appointment thus the snake has to wait another day to be treated. In that case time is health, in your case time is health (due to cold) and is time the snake can spend hiding better than it is now.
    Like I said, I don't want to be harsh, only straight forward for teh sake of the snake and for the best chances of you finding your snake, but go search for your snake.
