Escapee

Cleaned out my coastal cage today. I turned my back and when I turned back one of the coastals had got 3/4s of the way out. I grabbed him but he has got behind the big cage set (movable but with difficulty). I let go rather than risk damage to the snake. It a waiting game atm. I've put some shelter up (read traps) but he seems quite content where he is.
It is very unlikely that he could get out of the room

RE: Escapee

He is back in his cage. All I had to do is move a pot plant and tilt a speaker forward. And before you ask, the plant is not one that was featured in lock,stock and two smoking barrels.

we put a tea towel around the gex's enclosure when we first got them to help them settle in, so that 3 out of 4 sides was covered. I went in one day to feed em and could only find one, when i lifted the tea towel one of the gex had escaped the cage and was hiding in between the tea towel and the enclosure........all he had to do was go down 10cm and he was home free...

One of the takers in WA had some N.levis. He had an escapee stimsons. He found the stimsons but the levis were never seen again. Moral to the story, don't have open topped gecko enclosures if your snake enclosures arn't escape proof.

RE: lost snake

Lib, they will survive for a long time without food or water. A guy here lost his snake, moved house 10 months later and found it under his wardrobe. That animal is still going today.
