havent been on in a while sorry :( Well Skittles has finally escaped and i cant find him anywhere. I had two cunning plans to lure hum back...both of which failed miserably. Anyone have any ideas of how to get him back. Its freezing over here and i dont think he will last too long. He has been gone 2 days now. |

Don't lose hope, our last corn was lost for a year, found in winter outside!!! Plenty of water bowls round the house, there's a good trap with a bottle on here, masking tape doorways, tin foil so you can hear them. Pinkies in hides around the place. What two things did you try? Good luck :) |

wel we found him at 12.30 last nite under my dads pillow. My cunning plans where number 1. i had 4 pinkys placed around the room and 1 in his tank incase h e hadnt actually escaped, i scraped that plan when i stood on a pinky in my bare feet and its insides all squelched out. My second plan was to place the tank on the floor beside the radiator and turn the heat mat on and place another pinky in it. It failed aswell probably because he was in my parents room. He escaped because his tank hasnt got a lid, it had selotaped paper on top because i broke the lid. so now i have a book on top and have ordered new glass. Glad he has come back thouggh :D hope you find your missing snake saddleninja |

I agree with GP! Also if the lids unstable the book could drop into his viv which wouldnt be nice |

Hi Hayley, I'm assuming that the viv has slidey doors on the front? Have you considered turning it upside down for now? I have in the past done this, upside down on an old cupboard door. When i used a fish tank as a temp viv i quickly learned how easy the lids were to get off them. |
