My Florida Blue, Jesse, must love giving me a heart attack every year or so. Last year, some members may recall Jesse getting himself stuck in an aquarium decoration:

Last night, he decided to do it again. This time with a plastic circle thingy meant to hold together the plastic plants:

Re: Another Epic Fail
Snakey wedged his head into a little hole that my teeny little nw babies usually stuff themselves into... I had no way of getting him out other than pulling on him. Luckily he wasn't hurt... Why do they seem to love squeezing into places they know they wont fit? Silly snakes.

Silly snakes. You would have hoped he learned his lesson last time.

Re: Another Epic Fail
We had to gently pull the ring back over his head. He was very upset and not a happy camper.

Re: Another Epic Fail
With the loop being plastic if that hadn't worked it would be easy to carefully cut the loop to release the snake. But good to know you could get him out without too much of a struggle. Originally Posted by Mommy2many

I've also got some vines that came with these hanging loops, and I lopped them off after I put them in the viv. Originally Posted by i_heart_sneakie_snakes
