The story of Houdini

JNugent

Addicted..
So, I've been trying to get an idea of what to name all my 12 new snakes I picked up this weekend. The corns all get Egyptian names, so that's a work in progress.. one of my albino desert kings was given to my daughter who quickly decided on naming her Cinderella. My male albino splendida earned his name this morning. As I was leaving for work I went to unhook my laptop which is in the snake room to take it with me. I reached under the desk for the power adapter and although it was near dark, I swore I saw a little white tail go streaking along the wall out of the corner of my eye. I thought maybe it was just my imagination as it was 445 in the morning. I've only got one snake that could be so I went to the tub where the little guy is temporarily housed until my new rack gets here and sure enough, the lid is on the tub and latched down. I open it up, move the hide, dig in the aspen and sure enough, he's not there. I literally dove under the desk Steve Irwin style and managed to find him behind the surge protector and wrangle him back up and put him into the tub, firmly pressing down on the lid and making sure the latches snapped. Fast forward to about 4 this afternoon, I get home come to check on the babies and I see a head and about 3 inches of white body wriggling out of the tiniest gap on the side of tub where the lid sits. So now, so aptly named Houdini in inside his tub again, which is inside another 52 quart sterilite tub. We'll see if he finds a way out of this one.. :p Man, my new rack needs to get here..
 
Tee hee - talk about keeping you on your toes! It's lucky you didn't just put it down to your imagination! A most appropriate name :) :)
