Huge Problem!
Hi, everyone. I have a pretty big problem... I have both of my snakes terrariums turned onto their sides (glass facing up, mesh lid on the side) It's a great technique for keeping humidity in, however... My Ball Python's cage locks, so I don't have any issues, or doubts about the snake escaping. About 30 minutes ago, I heard a small thud on my ground behind me (where the terrariums are), I look down, And there's Sasquatch! (My Garter). Any ideas on a temperary solution! I am heading down to the biggest reptile store in my state, and I'll pick up some clips, but I do NOT want to spend my morning looking for Sas... Thanks, Everyone.

Re: Huge Problem!
Yup. Do that for now. You can probably leave it upright for the garter anyway. Your ball needs a proper snake enclosure(as per your other thread) but a garter can be kept in a critter keeper.

Re: Huge Problem!
You don't need to have your cage on the it's side. Just leave it upright and cover the screen top.

Re: Huge Problem!
As stated above is your best bet, but can also use a couple STRONG bungee cords and wrap them around the tank and hook then together..

Re: Huge Problem!
I ended up using ropes in the same fashion as you would with bungees. I got clips today, so everything is fine now
