Very happy to read this... now you need separate them and figure out how they are getting out and fix it.

Re: Concerned?

An escaped reptile ALWAYS returns to its escape location for some reason within 2 to 14 days. Keep a very close eye and low noise. One day you'll be reading, look down, bam, snake.

This.^ if you're tight on money, at least use some books or something heavy to stack on top of your cages so they cant get out. Personally, depending on the sizes of your snakes, I would just setup a tub for each of them & put straps or binder clips to secure them. Full tub setups can be bought for under $100, heres a tutorial on how Vypyrz Tub Set-Up, The Basics...*DUW*

Re: Concerned?

when my BP escaped (i was new to snakes, got him with the tank his previous owner kept him in, sliding glass doors, no locks, i figured he couldn't open it) he managed to get on top of the piano, break a crystal vase, knock over a plant, break a lamp. my mom heard the commotion, thought it was the cat, went downstairs (as this was 3am) bent over to pick up the belt on the floor, only for the "belt" to slither away. we caught him, put him back and got a lock.

I'm so glad you found your snake

Glad you found your snake as well, hope this is a lesson learned so you dont have to learn it the hard way in the future.

That too. He's a lazy beast for sure. Only moves when it's absolutely necessary

Re: Concerned?

The few places I have found snakes that have gotten loose in the past have been behind my computer (heat), inside the couch like where the coils and boards are (dark), behind a dresser (dark), and in a leaky sink (water).

You might try setting out a water dish for him too in case he gets thirsty.
