Snake escapee

One of my snakes has escaped, i have hunted everywhere for her, no joy. Set a trap scented with mouse etc but i suspect she is under the floorboards now , looks like she is gone...

And the lid on the tub was not even moved i dont know how it managed it.

be sure to remember a snake will look for a dark and warm spot to hide,.

u really need a trap in every room mate, 2 of mine got out once, one of them had gone into the bottom of the fire, was 3days later when i found him.

Hmm, they really are a pain in the backside sometimes, i have a trap in the original room in which it escaped on a lovely warm heat mat with food (snakey heaven) and water. I had one escape in the past but i found it easily after searching the bags in the room.

Guess its a waiting game.

Any luck with finding the snake ?

I had one get out last week and found it today.

Nope, never found it, thats over a month now, given up hope of finding it.

may i ask wat type of snake?

A western diamond back rattler, only kidding it was a corn snake, only about 8 - 10 months old.

There is only one place that it could have gone and i am sure that is where it went, through a small hole and under the floorboards because i tore the room apart looking for it, so it could be anywhere now.

i have heard of snakes turning up after 5,6 and more months!! dont give up hope

defo dont give up yet, guy lost a kingsnake in derry, got a phone call while i was with him, someone had seen it on the walls, 3 months after it had escaped. so even outside it may suprise you how well they can survive and adapt. only need to find a mouse nest n itll b 4ft long in no time!! lol

i lost a 3ft corn snake a few yrs ago went missing 8 months then was found in the chimney by are old landlord thought he sadly died a month after as he was literaly skin and bones bearly able to feed
