ive lost talula not happy
she's just recently come out of brumation and i think i didnt close the viv properly when i checked her 2 days ago.
so ive had a good 1 and half hour search but no joy, so i put a couple of water bowls down, a heat mat and 5 hides various places in the room were she escaped and ive made a larger version of a bottle trap (she's + 3.5ft) apart from sprinkling flour have i missed any thing?
hope she turns up soon she was my 1st snake

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully she will turn up soon. Have you got food (i believe braining it is best) in any of the hides or just in the trap?

Sounds like you are doing everything you can. When you turn a light on in the room where you lost her, just take a few minutes to stand still and scan the room. You may catch sight of her as she slithers back into hiding.

DO you have any cats or dogs. If you do then they might help you to find her but just be careful they dont harm her in the process

Is you boiler upstairs? A friend of my OH has a snake and she lost it for 3 weeks and the plumber came to service the boiler, took the cover off and it was curled up on one of the pipes.
