Last night I was feeding my 2ft (ish) long BP in a rubber made tub and I guess I didn't latch it all the way, and about 35 minutes after he started eating the last mouse (stupid store was out of adults so I had to get him a couple hoppers, which I don't think was enough, but that's another story,Anayways, I went to get him out of the tub and put him back in his house, and NO SNAKE!!! we tore our house apart for an hour and a half. I even blew out the power to half the apartment when I was looking behind my aquarium and the surge protector came unplugged popped something. But then for some reason I opened the cupboard under my aquarium (for the umpteenth million time) and SNAKE!!! We was crawling into the baseboard heater!! I didn't want to yank him out so I grabbed my fish net and slowly pulled his head out of the heater, then he made a dash to hide behind the aquarium, but luckily his head went threw the loop of the fishnet handle and it pretty much turned into a snake hook and I lifted him out from behind there no with no problem!
And the moral of the story is.... DUCT TAPE THE HELL OUT OF THE TUB WHILE THE SNAKE IS IN THERE!!!
Or at least triple check to make sure the damn thing is latched all the way!
