My little Cornsnake I got a couple weeks ago escaped for 15 days.
The enclosure he was in had holes but I had taped them up bottom and top (so he doesn't hurt himself), I kept the little flip tops taped down as well and always had a few chunks of stone on top just in case.
I looked for him in the morning one day and he was there but when I got home from college he had vanished. I tore apart my house and didn't find him. I laid out mice traps, bottle traps, flour, everything!
I took another look at my cage and found that something wasn't right, it looked tampered with, I realized that there were a few decorations out of their ordinary places.
Well it ended up I found him, alive, a pale grey, cold, and skinny in my truck. :(
My friend failed to steal him! I guess he was trying to stuff it in his backpack but the snake had gotten out and he failed to notice.
I started smelling something pretty raunchy in the cabin and it was his poop he left behind which is how I found him in the bedsprings of the benchseat.
This just happened yesterday night and I fed him a warm pinky mouse, warmed up his tank, and put him back in. He has regained his coloration but he's stayed on his UTH, in a tight ball, and has used his tail to bury his head. He's clearly alive because I can see his stomach moving up and down but I feel so bad!
Should I feed him another Pinky in 2-3 days once he digest the one he has already eaten? :(
