Has this ever happened to anyone?
I had a jailbreak yesterday.
One of my BPs, a big normal 6 year old girl (the second BP I purchased as a baby in my 15 and growing collection) escaped her rack. I have her in a 41 quart Reptile Basics rack, with the little plastic peg stoppers. She must've got her nose through and forced her body out. I found the bent plastic peg stopper in front of her rack. She then traveled across the room to my Animal Plastics rack, climbs 5 shelves, goes behind the the tub with my Pastel Mystic Potion in it and pushes it open! Perhaps, it was the other ways around, but my AP rack drawers are pretty snug.
This is the only thing that makes sense. I didn't forget to close any drawers. My reptiles have their own room. I own a cat and dog, and that is one of my fears, that a snake would get out and one of my fur babies would get him/her.
This happened in a 10 hour window, I was in my Lady Cave the night before. I was completely confused when I went into the room, and found the drawers open. I found her sitting on the heat tape, behind the tubs, a shelf higher in the AP rack. She had pushed open two 15 quart tubs. I found the male on the heat tape in her in her drawer, behind her tub.
I really am not ready to start the breeding and I hope there wasn't a lock. I have a Pastel male (my first BP) in the same rack as her and a Super Enchi male in on the 3rd shelf from the bottom that she passed to get to the Pastel Mystic Potion! At least she has good taste!
I wonder in Reptile Basics would give me a good deal on a baby rack and heat tape to attempt to build an incubator in case I need it! But, I really hope I don't need it, at least for a few more years!
