I lost my corn snake once and i found it before i realised he was missing. I got pretty lucky, he didn't go very far. He ended up going into a small bucket sitting beside directly beside his tank and just staying there. Suprised me when i grabbed the bucket and seen him in there! Good luck, I hope you find the snake.

I'm sure it'll show up for you soon Kevin...

Before I secured his cage properly (dumb me) my ball python escaped twice. Both times he was found within a 2 foot diameter from his cage. It seemed he would evaporate, absolutely nowhere to be found, until he'd decide to slither over my feet in the morning or wake me up in the middle of the night by knocking crap off my shelves.

You could just wait it out

Often, they are juste on the nearest dark spot available. Sometime, you need to open everything (including closed box and all). I always find mine in a few second of search max. I was quite lucky actually.

Best of luck finding your Cal King, Kevin. I know it can be a pain, but the greatest feeling is that sense of relief when you find your snake. Keeeeeep on looking buddy .

I had two texas rat snakes get out once,,, found them in a rolled up sleeping bag!!!


Anyways, if you have wood or tiles/laminate floors and not carpet, I heard of someone powdering the floor with flour and seeing if the snake was moving through it then just following the tracks. Be real messy with carpet,,,lots of vaccuming though! Good luck!
