Our female stimson got out of her enclosure two days ago now and we can't find her anywhere.
Have tried leaving rats out and powder etc.My children and partner miss her.
I really believe he is still in the houe but aside from tearing open all the furniture we have searched everywhere.Had a late night trying to hear her.Any advice would be great as she is a much loved pet and we do not want to lose her.
This is the first time we have lost one of our beauties and I am kicking myself,but am trying everything to find her  |

Make sure you tell your neighbors about it so they don't think it's a brown snake and kill it if they see it!!

if it's that old it will have no trouble finding a nice place to hide and support itself so don't lose hope!!!
