    Re: Help - BP lost in wall cavity

Unfortunately, I cannot promise, & when snakes get too cold, they get sluggish & sleep- not what BPs are supposed to be doing. These things are best prevented...I've kept snakes for many years, & I can remember being just as unaware of the gaps left under cupboards- the only way you notice is after your snake does.

    I so hope you can get him back out & I doubt that tearing the wall apart is an option. A long time ago, I had an adult bull snake get loose in mid-November & she too headed under kitchen cupboards, where I couldn't get her out; I assumed she was there, by process of elimination, having looked everywhere else. I felt guilty, I worried, but she brumated there for about 6 months just as bull snakes do in the wild- one night in mid-May, there she was, sliding across my kitchen floor, none the worse for wear! Whew! Mistakes happen, I hope that you too get your BP back unharmed.
    That may work actually !!

    After many , many years, last week I had another escapee !!

    I had a good look around before work and decided to strip the snake room out to try and find the young Albino Royal .. it was on my mind all day . Thankfully the room temp stays at around 78F so that’s not too bad and then they usually search out any warm spots ... computers or other electrical devices ..

    Anyways , got home , dragged the chair out to make more room ... knelt down and suddenly noticed it curled up on top of the hamster cage !!!
