Hi everyone.
I have just gone to see Pearl and she's not there. I don't know what to do. Her Faun is in my room and I heard her messing around last night whilst I was in bed so I know it must have been some time during the night. I think my brother or sister must have come in to see her and not closed the door properly. I can't think of any other way of her escaping. What can I do to try and find her?
Thanks!

Oh no There's a sticky (3rd one down)in the "general keeping information" bit with loads of advice. Lots of escaped snakes get found from what I've read so don't panic. Good luck!

Just try and check everywhere in the faun first - under the door ledge? under the bedding? holding onto the inside of hide ? Then start looking from the faun outwards - she might not be very far yet, and they always look for small dark spaces.. think if you were a snake, where would be the first place to go ... read the stickie.
Don't loose hope, so many people on here had snakeys missing and many have turned up. Keep your chin up!

Just done the bottle trap so fingers crossed! I think she'll probably still be in my room somewhere (hoping anyway) Got a dog as well so am just gonna keep watching her for odd behaviour. Doubt she will eat her but would certainly bark.

Hope you find your snake soon, as the temp drops on a night she will look for some sort of heat source so keep a heat mat on and near the bottle trap.

THANK GOD!!! I've found her :D :D :D She was still in my room luckily. I have some plastic bags at the side of my chest of drawers that I use for inside my bin and I found her hiding in them. I am sooo happy right now and I will definitely be keeping a closer eye on her. She didn't seem stressed out or anything which is good. I think she kinda liked her adventure out of her faun for a few nights. Won't be happening again though!!

Thanks everyone. Don't know how I would have coped without this forum. Would have probably thought it was too late and that she was no longer in the house. They don't travel very far do they? She only travelled about 3 feet in 2 days lol. Can't wait to tell my brother after school and see his face. He's been crying about it since last night poor boy :( I think he feels guilty about it and he loves Pearl to bits.

Phew, very glad you found her!

Wrote a little guide of my own with regards to finding a lost snake yesterday, with a link to the bottle trap thing. It can be found here, if anyone's interested: https://www.facebook.com/groups/348607158487894/doc/538511186164156

Just read your guide Isoldael and its very useful :) I will definitely know what to do if it ever happens again (But it better not). Luckily I didn't have to do too much than to completely empty my room and there she was just staring up at me as if what she did was perfectly fine lol.
