Mona <3 snakes
Peeps I have a major problem!

My corn snake has just had a bath, leaped out and crawled into an old chair leg, its only open on one side and I CAN NOT get him out :/

Here's a pic,

What would you do to get him out. I am worried he will get stuck in there, and i cant take this thing apart!!

oh no :( I wish there was a way I could think of to tell you to heat it up without harmimg him because I know when my snakes get to warm they try and find a cooler spot, Oh maybe medium to warm water in a bathtub (aslong as theres no holes for the water to get into) tilted on its side so he has some leverage to get out
 
there is holes for the screws tho, cant even see him so he must be in one of the smaller tubes. Really worried about him getting stuck coz there is no way of me taking this thing apart, he has to come out of it himself. Aw god soooo worried right now! Ive got the thingy in one of my empty vivs so if the does decide to come out he cant disappear... Dont think the mouse is gonna work as he last ate 2 days ago.
 
yes I can see him and he looks stuck. he is about half way down the long tube. he isnt that big. wait il post a pic of him.
 
Okay well the mouse might still work as snakes will eat pretty well when there is food available as they eat not knowing when next opportunity will be available snakes can get their way out of most things
 
I am really sorry this happened. Is there anyway you can lock the chair up in a place where if he gets out he has no place to go?

And I have to ask....why were you giving him a bath? He doesn't look fat.
 
Well the chair piece is in an empty viv, so if he does get out he'll be in the viv.

I give my snakes a bath sometimes as they seem to enjoy it, and whats that to do with being fat?
 
I just don't ever give mine baths. I am afraid of the water temp not being perfect and giving them a resp infection or having an accident happen to them. And they really don't need them anyway.
I will swim chunky girls before breeding them so they are nice and strong to prevent egg binding and then I measure the water temps carefully and am so worried I am almost neurotic.
 
I am careful with my temps and they seem to like it. Scar usually just floats about lol an accident like mine where the little b*****d jumps into a metal tube had never happened before tho lol I do dry them before putting them back in their vivs tho.
 
Do you have any suggestions on how to get him out of the metal thing?? im worried about him getting too cold. and the viv he is in atm is empty.
