Yes guys, put me in the category of irresponsible reptile keeper today! This morning I noticed that the Arizona mountain king that we picked up on Sunday did a escape out of a ten gallon enclosure that had a glass versa top on it with a screen top and locking clips on both ends. When I first looked inside the tank I said ok she is under the hide cool side, not there. 0k, she is on the warm side under the hide, not there. Panick started setting in and I pick up all the paper towels ,gone. At this point I do a ten second survey of the immediate area around the enclosure and don't see her. That turns into a massive search of the whole room, both closets, and reorganizing some stacked boxes in a corner of the room, no snake. Out of breath now. Sit down and try to collect my thoughts and think of the last time we saw her and that would be Tuesday morning when I opened the tank to peek at her and she was there under the cool side hide. At this point I am very upset and have already scanned all the baseboards, walls , and cool spots where I think she would have wanted to go to escape the heat. The room is not air conditioned but does have a fan that pretty much is on all the time. Ambient temp in the room is 82f- 85f. Thought the dark spaces of the closets would show her but no. Still searching other parts of the apartment now. I know snakes are escape masters but this is really perplexing.
