The other day while feeding and spending some time with 3 of my big females. One of them(Lucky) decided to make a break for it. I thought I could trust her. Sneaky little scrub.

Our girl Lucky isn't a snake, we've decided. She would much rather spend time out with us. Last fall she went on a road trip to a Herp. show. Only to be refused entry. My daughter was heart broken. Lucky road for 3 hours in my daughter's hand. She just sat there looking out the window and didn't cause a bit of trouble. Of course, she(Lucky) wasn't happy when she had to spend the showtime in a container under the registration table.
Here's my daughter Gabby with her "Lucky" plates she got for her birthday.

True to what Don said... I make sure all 3 of mine, are in a container when I clean. When I put their food in their home, I make sure all 3 are there.

Funny you should mention this. Lucky wanted to be alone just before she gave birth. She didn't want to be in with her group. Moments after the last baby was delivered she wanted out. The last thing she wanted to do was stay with them. I put her back with her buddies and she was fine.
I have since then returned her to her babies from time to time. The babies all come out and smell the new visitor. Then they all take a snooze in the hide.
