So why is it still loose?

Man i wish i had snakes in my house...
well... wild ones...


annnyyyywayyyss
yeah the pvc was a poor choice for a hide.
as for getting him out, try spritsing him with some water... or get a f/t mouse and put it far enough away from the pvc so he has to come out...

thats what i would do...

He's not. He's in an enclosure that she has for him. She put a PVC pipe in there. Not the best idea, but I could possibly see the appeal.

She's referring to the fact that she's not sure how he's going to handle feeding something that's not what he's used to since he's been living on her mice for so long.

Ah, ok. That makes sense. Thanks.

Oh, one other thing,
depending on how big it is - i think i saw 5 foot somewhere?
i have found that a rubbermaid (without a top) that the snake can fit in snugly, and a cardboard top works well as a hide, i use it with my 8 foot red tail. if she poos in it i can just pull it out and spray it down and clean it easy, and the cardboard helps with keeping it dark... im sure you could find a opaque rubbermaid or something to use as well...

mindibun I didn't put the pvc pipe in there my fil did and I had a HUGE fight with that man today about it ... I already had a hide in there!! he just grrrrr ... the man is UGH!!! I can't I just can't get into it! I told him WHEN that poor snake comes out that pipe is GONE he YELLED at me and told me he needed somewhere to hide ... I guess he thinks the half log thing isn't good enough!! AND I just had to put him in his place over PLANTING live plants in there with POTTING SOIL!!! OMG he thinks I am CRAZY for saying NO!!
