The bits I found in the mouse cage were not Normal . I have just found him on top of the fridge. I am really pleased. Max has just nipped at me when I picked him up but it may be because he is in a different Viv to the one he escaped from. I have just place normal in the viv he got out of but he seems content and none the worse for his explorations.
That is such a relief Stumpy!! Felt so bad for you finding 'normal' in that state in your mice cage...by the way, what was it you found there then?
At least both escapees are home and safe (and will hopefully stay that way). Just give them time to destress and get used to their surroundings again and I am sure they will be back to normal.
I have no idea what was in the mouse cage, Having never seen a snake ripped up I do not know what it as unless it was bits of mouse, I have seen them eat one of there own.
