You looked everywhere except for where she is. I lost a snake on Wed and I found it Thursday in the last place I looked.
My suggestion is try and secure the room that the cage was in and keep looking. There is no place too small for a snake to get once they are out. You can put baby powder on the floor to see if it crawls through it. You can also place a feeder inside a container and hope the snake goes in to eat it.
Good luck,
Trevor

Heat lamp shining on one spot.
A mouse on the floor.
Some flour along the sides of the room.

This just happened to HeatherRose' BP a little while ago. Maybe you should ask her what she did. Her's just reappeared one morning though...

Good luck,

baby powder cannt harm snakes in the snake room

Not so sure about baby powder. Some are made from talc, and have been linked to respiratory problems in infants. Snakes seem prone to respiratory problems, so if I were spreading "baby powder" around, I'd at least make sure it's corn starch based.

I did everything, tore my room apart, then gave up. He just slithered over my feet one morning a couple days later. My advice is to just wait it out

look in the dark warm places, and places that are colosed up, corns, and many others, love to be squashed up becaus ethey feel safer that way.when one of mine escaped i found him under a drawer btween the drawer and the wood unerneath it.but yeah near heat sources, and closed up spaces and youl find it

Think like a snake....think like a snake.....

Thats what helped me find mine when they went missing....I found them coiled up inside bottles in the closet we keep our empties in.
The other time, we found her coiled up in the storm cuff of a pair of snowpants.
And the other time, she was between the box spring and the mattress in my bedroom.
And the other time.....when I was moving, I didnt know if she got out in my car, outside, or in the new place. I tore my car and my new place completely apart with no luck. A week later, she came crawling out from between my legs while driving, scared the crap out me....thankfully it was summer, or she'd have been a cornpop.

Anyways, the point is.....dont leave any place out of the question.

Sheesh, that post makes me look like a pretty irresponsible herper...

[Siretsap]

I was just about to suggest you might as well have it free roaming since it's out soo many times ;-)

[askaboutrep]

Its not that bad....I've had her for 9 years. Thats less than once per year.

[askaboutrep]

Any luck yet??
