Hi everyone got myself a anerythristic corn about 3 months old had it for week or so,, went to check on it, it being called "Black jack" as it looks like a Black Jack rapper. Anyway low and behold gone , talk about being gutted another escapee , started the search top shelf downwards to floor,, no wear to tobe seen. My grand daughter was around at the time wanted the tele on, which is wall mounted as my wife looked up to see what was on,, their was Black Jack hanging down from the wii bar on the bottom of the TV,, well I could not have been happier. Now made some modifications. |

phew you were lucky to find him, hope you've blocked all the escape holes up, surprising what tiniest of gaps they can squeeze out of |

I agree with Sta~ple, what are you housing them in? They don't seem particularly safe! |

Hi Black Jack is in a Komodo starter tank which has been modified from original as lost first snake from it, thought I had made it escape proof lost first one from it. My other corn Sophie 9 months is in glass fronted viv. E-mailed Komodo first time, reply not happened before hope you find it. Took the tank lid apart it looks like it has already been modified and cobbled back together.. I WILL LEARN |

Yeah, go out an get a faunarium, much more tried and tested with corns! And they're cheap, maybe £13 for the large flat one with will see him right for a long while. |

As a stopgap, stretch a pair of tights over the top of the tank before replacing the lid. That should keep him in! |

You've done well finding her so quick. I personally recommend these as housing for young corns. The lids clip on really securely and you make the holes so you can be sure its escape proof. I have a yearling in one of these: http://www.sistema.co.nz/shop/KLIP-IT/Rectangular/1870.htm and my little hoggie in a smaller one. I think I paid £7 at Asda for the larger one. |

Wilkinsons for those as well, I've got hogs, a milk and did have a hatchie retic in one. Very strong when the lid clips are on. |
