Do you know what type of snake it is? The shed may give it away... If it's a python, then check at night time. It sounds like it is using the warmth from the top of the cage. If it's possible, you could put some talcom (sp?) powder around and then follow the snake tracks... It may help a bit.
Let us all know how you go with this. It would be interesting to know what it is. What region are you in? Do you know what snakes occur in your area? |
