Oh no,I hope you find her soon. I lost one of mine the other week but thanfully he was found in 45 mins. That was 45 mins of pure hell so I can imagine what you're going through at the mo.
I checked the warm places and nothing. He was found hidden in a large bag of Aspen!
As said,try not to lose heart (easier said then done,I know) but snakes have been known to turn up months later.

Good luck finding little Biscuit, I had one go missing in September and he turned up two weeks later, he was only a tiny baby too and he was as bright and active as he was the day he disappeared, so don't give up hope! I totally gave up finding mine but as I was watching TV one day I saw his head poke out from the vent in the door next to the TV, pure chance that I happened to look over at the vent otherwise he'd probably still be gone! Yours'll turn up when you least expect it
Best of luck finding him!

its really hard to say she'll turn up even if it has only been two days. she was just to tiny and dark coloured. she could be anywhere! anyways i deside to tell next door as there are alot of little holes in the house. thought it would be better if i told them and she didnt show up rather then she shows up and them not know and doing something horrable to her. it was not fun telling them, they were soooooo p*****. the disgusted look on there faces even made me wonder for half a second why on earth i have pet snakes.

Why would somebody elses view on snakes make you wonder why you keep them? Someone has to love them, and that someone is us! Just because other people don't like them doesn't mean we all should hate them, we'd be boring if we were all the same.
Your neighbours are silly for being peed off at you for losing a tiny weeny harmless little snake, it does make me laugh how the uneducated seem to think that all snakes are dangerous! If they do see her I bet they'll feel really stupid when they see the size of her and wonder what they were ever worried about!
May I ask where she escaped from? Was she in a viv or a tub that she managed to push the lid off or something?

My mates used to give me the same looks! They' come around now especially to see Naboo! I've let them handle him and they love it. One of my mates had a fear of snakes really couldn't stand them but I showed him Naboo got him to handle him doo funny coz his hands were so clammy due to nerves! He came round a few more times to watch him eat and then 2 weeks later he sends me a pic from Tenerife with a 10 foot python around his neck! Naboo played his part in conquering his fear!

Never relised how much of horders we are, you wouldnt believe some of the stuff iv come across. Even found a phone I lost like 2 -3 years ago lol :)

Its been 24 hours you cant give up hope just yet.

All the commotion will have the snake well hidden, check round each rooms edges for gaps between carpets and skirting boards, the thinking been if they set off in a direction eventually they will meet a wall, they cant go through so they will skirt round the edge of the room until they find an alternative, be it a small hole, a gap in the carpet, maybe even under the skirting or floorboards. I've heard of them turning up in spaces you'd never think they'd be, inside a speaker was the best one. Remember too that you are not always hunting a stationary object, if it hears you coming it will run away.

I'm sure you probably have, but have you checked all your shoes? My Volvy disappeared the third day I had him; found him curled up in my running shoes. Yeuch. I'm sure you'll find her.

I've been waiting for my corn to show up. She's 3 ft long and it's been 3 months now. Don't give up so soon, many people find their babies within a few days/ weeks.

The first time Marge escaped she turned up 3 days later, we have 2 cats one of which has eaten slo worms in the past, i was sure she was gone for good or eaten.
She turned up going down the stairs.
Don't give up hope, check anywhere warm, when Marge escaped the 2nd time she was behind the dishwasher, and I pulled it out once and checked behind it, but she was behind it somewhere!!!

Don't give up hope
