Went to get him out on Sunday and he was no where to be found. I have read through the "Finding a lost snake" sticky. hopefully he will turn up soon.

Have been looking for him but no luck so far. would try a bottle trap but he was going blue so I may wait abit before I try that one.

Just hope he hasnt got outside.

I hope you find him soon. I expect if he was going blue then he will have gone into hiding somewhere. If I were you I would have a good look closeby his viv. Think small. He may not have gone very far. You might not find him until he has shed and starts moving about again. If he usually poops when he sheds you may be able to sniff him out lol

Editted to say just pop a couple of water bowls down so that he can have access to water if needed

Had a look around his faun with no luck. I have made a "bottle trap" so will set that up and see if he falls for it.

On a plus note because I work nights and now have 2 nights off I will be up all night for them both so I can keep a eye out for him.

Still no sign of him. I have searched high and low and tried the bottle trap twice but still no luck. Im starting to think he may of got out side.

I have started thinking about getting another corn and putting it in the faun. I had bought a viv for Gizmo so if he turned up I would still have some where to keep him.
