well he managed to get 9" upwars to the tinyest hole up the back were i hadnt sealed the lid down properly there litterly 1cm gap, thats the only place vaable he could of got out of.... im devestated,
more to the point how do i find/catch him? will he turn up one day or is that the last ill se off him,
problem i have is i got 1 kitten, 1 cat and a dog. theres no traces of blood guts what have you, sounds gresome but you ge the idea...

my corn escaped about 3 weeks ago , same size as yours by the sounds of it . I LOOKED EVERYWHERE. so i thought?? Then last monday she came out from under the couch which is about 1 metre from her viv . Look round near his viv again and again most likely to be close to home . Hope you find him and dont give up!!! |

Look behind fridges/freezer etc. The motor and compressor in the back of them gets nice and warm They could climb stairs fairly easily, but he'll more than likely be somewhere warm.
I currently have a King snake hiding around my house somewhere, so you're not the only one. |

Cut the top off a 2litre plastic bottle turn in inside its self and tape it shut, put a warm pinkie in an leave the bottle some where warm. If you set a few up around warm places when he gets hungry/cold he will search out a warm place and find the food in the bottle an if he eats it then he will be too fat to fit back threw the hole :)
hope you catch your little runaway. Good luck! |

ok cool, dont quite know were to stick it but i suppose i can just put the pinkies in certain places and check every day, how long will a pinkie last if not eaten?? i mean how long till its gone bad and a heath risk to the snake?? |

The pinky has to be inside a bottle or snake will eat it then go and hide again.
Putting flour down across the doorways will leave marks in the flour if snake has gone into/out of a room.

Check your clothes before you put them in the washer. We nearly lost our missing corn that way They love clothes, especially hiding in pockets |
