Snake gone!!!

[eden roscoe]

hey today i went out to my avairy outside to check on my pair of diamond pythons who over the last few weeks have been breeding. inside the cage i could only find the male and a bit of wood at the bottom on the cage which blocked the gap between the roof and the wall. i am devastated and i dont know where to look or what to do. there are trees leading up from the cage and a caravan park behind my house. i put talkom powder all over the cage so if she gos in or ontop of it i will no. I have also taken the male out and fixed the door open. is there anything else i can do besides looking for her which i have been doing for the last 2 hours, please help desperately needed.

First step would be to alert all your neighbours & the caravan park owner, stress to them that it's harmless & won't hurt them. Goodluck

get a couple of live rats in a cage and put them in or near your enclosure. if she's still around and hungry she will be atracted back trying to hook into the rats. but you have to have eyes on it all the time to catch her. i caught a carpet like that and a brown tree snake by accident.

other than that its all luck.

You was only talking about the pair a few days ago,i hope you have some luck in finding it,just let your neighbours and ppl that live near you,hopefully some1 will see it,best of luck,leave some rats or mice in different locations in bird cages if you have any,one of my snakes escaped 6months ago,i had 3 locations around the house with a rat in it,i checked every hour or so after dark,it was about 9pm there it was around one of the cages...good luck...

it sucks it is outside though as i have no idea where it is

 

[eden roscoe]

still no sign of her

 

[LullabyLizard]

Aww I hope you find her soon

if its a gravid female she may have found somewhere with more moisture to lay her eggs

had she shed lately?? and i would also watch the size of the food your trying to lure her with as you could infact do more harm than good if it was a large food item and she is gravid.

best of luck to ya if you think she may have been gravid you might want to try some spagnum moss in there to boost up the humidity but its a long shot

prelay shed was about a week a way, she was starting to look a bit dull
