Re: At a complete loss...need help

Look UP, retics are climbers... They can do the unexpected. I had my big female on the couch yesterday, the phone rang so I went for it... it was an automated call so I hung up and went right back to the room. When I got back she was hanging off my fan trying to reach a picture frame halfway across the room. They generally climb up.

Re: At a complete loss...need help

Thanks Stephan! I've divided (still dividing, I guess) my searches between up and down. We have some pretty good hiding places that are elevated. I routinely search these areas as well as the usual "behind the dryer" type places. And I guess, as an update, we still have a retic that is AWOL.

Re: At a complete loss...need help

id suggest that you start thinking like a snake and sit down with a clear mind, and go check the very last place ud expect to find him.

a snake would look for 3 things: hiding, food and a drink, so if you know somewhere like that, ull find him.
something along the lines of an open water tank in an attic, cold pipes in a warm place (condensation on pipes will give a drinking source of babes), even under a bath tub. think along those lines and ull find him

Re: At a complete loss...need help

I have had a couple of escapes in my day. and both times I found my little guys behind the fridge. one of the times they were on the motor and coils for the fridge. I hope that helps. good luck.

LOL MDT, your snake could just eat an RFID rat/rabbit, and you could find him that way...
