hi,
3 days ago i lost my corn snake she is fully mature about 4 ft long, maybe 4.5 ft long. i keep it in a viv and the doors locked with a wedge, i came in one afternoon to find the wedge on the floor and the snake gone i can only presume the cat knocked the wedge out !! i have looked everywhere for it but i do have lots of gaps in the floorboards so she could have gone under there, i have set traps such as flour and placing chicks and mice on the floor but to no avail she has not come out or seen her! surely i cannot miss a 4ft snake around the house, im getting quite worried now as she has not eaten for 3 weeks now, any ideas how to get her back? ive looked at bottle traps but think they maybe a bit small for her !
help !!!
ps i do have a parrot should i be worried about his safety????
sharon

Not sure how to get her back but just for a bit of hope - my friend lost his over the winter for 6 months....and suddenly there she was one day safe and sound in a warm draw

Good luck

I have a five foot corn snake too and boy can she move. I have never lost her i must admit even though she got out of the vent once and thumped onto the floor and slid at a hell of a speed away but i caught her just in time. My mate who breeds them is always "loosing" his but they always seam to turn up especialy when hungrey.
You must realise that a corn snake can live up to a year without food so I would not panick too much.
When you do find her pet a sliding key lock on the viv. That stops mine.

i dare not tell my neighbours they will freak out !!!

I lost my cornsnake once, had hell of a job finding her ! You think that a cornsnake will stay somewhere warm ?
-They wont !

They will be somewhere where they find secure, Mine was in the corner of the room under a loose bit of carpet. Search for it before it gets out of the house.

You'll also be surprised what they can squeeze themselves into.

Good luck !

ive looked everywhere, ive given up now its been nearly two weeks now nearly wrecked my house looking !! pulled up floor boards etc but still no hope in finding her !

at last i found her 4 months later.....outside in the garden under the bbq nice and fat too !!!

Aww nice, good to hear you've found her
