Answer 1

Well They Are Escape Artists

Answer 2

Move immediately. (It could be hiding in your keyboard. They like the mouse...)

Answer 3

I would leave a heat pad plugged in on the floor in the kitchen or somewhere out in the open and your snake will for sure go to it seeking warmth and will stay there for a long time.

Answer 4

Oh F***

Just make sure the lid is duct taped on

Try to lure him out with a dead mouse. (You can buy them at Petco) Put one in a bowl in the middle of the floor in each room and close the door. Randomly check the rooms

Good Luck!!

Answer 5

ok, escaping problem is easly handled. try so lid locks. go to petco/smart or any place you cand buy a lid. they should have them. they work wonders. i have them on a 55 for knight anoles. especial because catching wall climbers is so much fun. another thing is.....duct tape. i hate the look but, it works. velcrow( i hope that is how it is spelled) works well to.

now for a lure. mouse and a fishing pole :) you get a mouse and you can either buy a trap online or you can make sure that you seal the room so he can never escape the room. i like just looking until i get bit and then backing the fangs out :) the traditonal way of catching any animal. but a dead mouse and a bucket with a stick. you just have to watch it. i like getting some ideas from old cartoons.

Answer 6

i think you should call any animal organizations, because it is really unsafe to let it out. because what if it gets to your neighbor's house? then.. that is really not good. they can have people come to your house and find it for you. or keep a frozen mouse anywhere near you so when it goes by, you will see it.

you should double check again, and if you really cant find it, call immediately!

o haha i just saw your new updates. thank god! im glad ur okay. i dnt really care about the points so its alright, but i just want you to know that you have to try figure out how your tricky pet got out! i think it hit the top thats too loose, and got out easy peazzy! try putting a lock on the top if you can or get a more secure aquarium, or anything you keep him in

i hope this helped

xoxooxo

Answer 7
