Hi All
About 2 months ago my little male hognose decided to leave his viv and go "Walkabout", after turning the reptile room inside out and then the lounge, I waited a few days and did it all again, still no sign, then last week my wife came home and he was on the lounge carpet in front of the fire(slightly cold) so she put him in his viv now it was altered, the little darling escaped through an air vent.
Well he had 2 large pinkies yesterday and is now getting to know me again, he lost aboput 5 grams during the 2 months but now seems ok. |

| Had a female hatchling do the same on me 2 yrs ago, she was gone for 8mths! Reappeared through a hole in my decking a lot bigger than when she left, think she'd been living on frogs out the garden certainly took a while to get her back onto defrosts lol. |

Good news Stickbow
It's great that you've found him.
I've had a milk snake on the loose since October and I'm starting to give up hope.  |

Ooops... I live in fear of this happening.... Horace got out of his feeding tub once when I was not taking notice, but luckily found him after a couple of minutes hiding in a stack of papers under his tub! (worth being a messy brat at times) 
Glad to hear you have him back now. sorry to hear about your milk Kaz.  |

| I go into a cold sweat when I think about this sort of thing. My corn got out of her viv last year, but thankfully I found her the same day, hiding behind a bookcase. She could have got behind the kitchen units, or under the shower, or behind the skirting boards, and I could have never seen her again. Horrible thought! |

I know - it's distressing, especially since we are doing the electrics at the moment so he could easily get under the floor boards
Hearing stories like this one though give me hope- one day I might come home and find Munky just sat on the carpet in front of the fire |
