    Talking Re: Snake MIA: Escaped what to do.

    Who hoo! Marley's been found! No more slightly freaking out anymore.

    Was checking behind some canvases and saw her kink tail disappear behind a stack of notebooks and I was able to catch the little Houdini from behind there.

    I think I already figured out how she escaped in the first place. When I was changing out the water I didn't get the lid closed all the way and part of one of the branches caught in the grove and allowed enough space for her to get out. Some shifting branches around should take care of that when I clean her cage in the morning. RIght now she just has little plants and her hide at the moment.

    So whats the equilaient of a snake being grounded for giving her Momma such a scare.

    And she was found behind the desk, which was where her tank was so I got lucky.

    Glad to read of the find! I've always had luck with my escapies, you learn from your mistakes. 1 way that is possible this time of year if you have male and female same sps. is to lay a female shed down and if its a male that has escaped it will be waiting there the next morning!

    Good news.

    Punishment should be extra food and an apology from you to her.

    Good news! See, this is why I say never give up hope! Now...you must, must, must make sure that lid is secure so that she doesn't get out again.
