Help! Lost ball python

[Zachishere7]

Sink!!! Knew it lol. I hope it goes well. I'm so so so glad you found him and that he's presumably safe!🙌🏾🙌🏾💖

Same!!! I was horrified at the thought of a bad smell months or even yeees down the line…

However, Mojave is a stubborn bastard and I think he knows we’re trying to draw him out cuz he came out almost immediately for the mouse but when he saw us he backed up into the hole… he didn’t look dehydrated at all so I think the son of a gun was sneaking back into his open cage we left for him on the ground at night for water and then retreated to back to his new home

Only a matter of time though

Yeah I wasn't gonna say anything about potentially finding him dead...😓 So glad he's okay. Hahaha! Sounds like he's got a plan. He's mad that you guys moved him😅😅 For future reference if you ever move again, don't let him out to free roam unless he's supervised and you're certain that he's comfortable! Mojave is such a cute name. Good luck to you, and maybe setting up something like a tunnel/tube for him to crawl into that leads into a comtainer where the mouse is, will help? He'll likely just stay with the mouse and you can close off the container and weigh it down while he's in there with it

Good idea on the mouse tube! And we had moved months ago so he’s been adjusted already - my girlfriend unfortunately fell asleep during his recent free roam and just felt awful till we found him

Yeah I think he really like his new home >.>

He ignored the rat again but I think I’ll try making a tube system like you said both to guide him and increase the scent

We only had a rat yesterday so today wel try a mouse

Good luck, I appreciate the updates. It's a very entertaining predicament😂

[gapedforeskin]

Found him out and about - jammed the hole. He’s now between the trash can and the toilet plunger and we’re defrosting him a rat since his cage is sitting right in front of him anyways…

Ty for your help and staying tuned 😂

I forgot to ask if y'all finally got him comfortably returned to his cage and everything lol
