It was a normal day when me and the family went out, while we were out we get a phone call to say that out biggest snake was found at the bottom of our stairs at our flat she had got out then past the front door (no idea how) then down 2 flights of stairs and luckily looks like she could go no further, the thing was we were 45 miles from home so it was a mad dash back home to see her safely back in her home its easier to find them when they are bigger |

I don't use wedges for my doors I've got 2 strips of acrylic dropped into the runners and paper binders on the edges so that no way can they open their doors or squeeze through the gap. |

Even if the doors are slightly open because of aspen in the runners it can be enough for someone to get their head and push the door, even with rubber wedges!
Your quite lucky, did it escapee that day or had it escapeed some while ago? |

Snakes can and do escape and isn't always down to negligence.
Snakes are escape artists. Quite a few people on here have had escaped snakes from what they thought were secure vivs/tanks. You know how one of mine escaped!
Agreed.
Also, sometimes it not always possible to check 20 snakes before leaving the house everyday. I barely handle mine, so if the viv was secure the day before I can safely assume (usually) that nothing much has changed.
Yup, same. |
