So just got hime from work and though i would handle rubi for first time since ffed on sat. However when i opened her teranium couldnt find her anywhere so panicked that she had escaped. I then remembered that corn snakes like to burrow in aspen bedding, which i had changed to at the weekend. Turned out she had burried herself completly under the new bedding...so relieved

8 did that to me the other week, except he was sat on his log right in front of me! he usually spends most his time in one of the hides so i didn't look at the log straight away, just went into a panic thinking he'd escaped. needless to say when i spotted him just sat on the log looking at me i felt very stupid!!
