He's never been lost before and he's still pretty young.

Any advice please...i'm frantic...

1) Search at night.
2) Look along the floor beside the walls.
3) Look inside every nook and cranny you can see and then more.
4) sprinkle flour along the doorways so you know if cuts through.
5) put paper or something that crumples and makes a lot of noise along the walls
6) Leave a dead food item inside a two litre coke bottle(depends on the size of the snake). Leave this along the wall not far away from his enclosure.
7)Be patient.

I once lost a BP of mine only to find her four months later. Good luck!

P.S where are you located at? If the temps outside are warm, then you do not have to worry over it too much.
