close up all your doors and try and make a some sort trail.

Corns are amazingly adept at climbing, so I wouldn't be surprised at all to find a missing one up high somewhere. Alice has actually climbed up the edge of a door before!! I still can't figure out how she managed that!

The folder was about 7 feet away from the tank, on a shelve. I wouldn't have seen Sneaky if I hadn't opened it.

I just found Sneaky. The little bugger was hiding in a folder. That was definitely one of the worst experience of my life, but it felt so good to find him. I was so worried.
Thanks for all the replies and tips, I really appreciate your support.

i also had that problem, i thought i lost my younger corn my heart went into my throat until i found her sleeping under the chipins and she done the same and looked at me so to say "what the hell do you think your doing, dont wake me gooooooooooood" lmao she still does it now but now shes bigger i can see her back just popping up from them lol
Chimp276 Posted - 02/07/2009 : 16:38:09
Hii mate! I know it is terrible when they escape, but don't panic! And don't beat yourself up about it! I lost Echo then found him a week later hiding under a traffic cone in the garden! I'm sure you will find him! Close all doors and sont leave windows open, they will get out!

Good Luck

did you check the substrate? I thought I'd lost mine but the little blighter was buried in the aspen shavings. I took everything out of the viv and spent a few mins going through the substrate and still couldnt find her but then suddenly she popped up looking very angry at me :) She is only 7 weeks old though so hides very easily
Ell Posted - 02/07/2009 : 09:36:48
Eek! Best of luck!
lee2308 Posted - 01/07/2009 : 23:46:30
heres a bottle trap,i would suggest taping a piece of plastic bag around the opening on the inside to stop him finding his way out,good idea to put the viv on the floor. http://www.thecornsnake.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1759
