My wife went to get Lola out of her faun yesterday and couldn't find her! I started to panic as id fed her 2 days before and we started pulling all the decor out.
Luckily she had just decided to bury herself in the deep end of the faun, panic over, but it was a bit of a fright! I think she is going into shed as she looked quite dusty. Should we raise the humidity a bit or put a wet hide in? Its usually 55 to 60% due to the large fish tank next to the faun. |

| No need to raise the humidity really. If its her first shed with you leave as normal see how it goes. Of any problems you know next time to aid her a little. |

I had that happen the very first morning after I bought Misssi!
I bought her home without telling the OH aswell... haha! and when I went to show him her in the morning after he got home from work, she'd gone!!
My panic was not only over losing her, but also having to explain to the OH that she had escaped!!
She had buried herself under her woodchip on the cool side, she only had a hide on her warm side at this point, hence the upside down plant pot!! |

Heh well im glad its not just us :)
Will keep an eye on her shed this time and see how it goes.
In other news, I was feeling left out so I've bought myself a Royal and picked him up yesterday! These snakes are addictive! Just registered over on the royal forum so will post pics there soon.

Dont know if you are anywhere near Swindon Marc, but id highly recommend the breeder I got my royal from. Its a 40 mile trip for me, but it was worth it to see some amazing snakes and talk to someone who knows their snakes. The prices were good too!

Hehe, had that moment some times by now, and in these 3 years there were only 3 real escapes ;-)
I bought 19 corns in 16 months.
Have you decided on a royal morph yet? |
