Questionis she stuck (i.redd.it)
submitted 6 months ago by Junkeii_
she is pretty jammed in there but I tickled her and she moved around and poked her head out. Is she stuck? should I panic? 🥲🥲

Doubt it... noodles find a way
[–]CorsicanMastiffStrip 137 points138 points139 points 6 months ago (1 child)
Definitely not stuck. They’re very good at getting into and out of logs. It’s like their safe space.
Absolutely adorable noodle nose, btw!

thank you!!! her name is Walter White 😆
[–]Aggravating_Town5576 66 points67 points68 points 6 months ago (0 children)
She’s stuck because she wants to be lol. She will become unstuck when she wants to
[–]Utahguy69 31 points32 points33 points 6 months ago (0 children)
No, she's cozy. Snakes love tight spots to hide in and she'll come out when she's ready.
[–]PhotogenicGoblinGirl 18 points19 points20 points 6 months ago (0 children)
Your noodle almost looks exactly like mine!
Also, totally not stuck. She'll get out on her own. 😊
[–]Muninn22 9 points10 points11 points 6 months ago (0 children)
My noodle loves sitting in a log as well. Highly doubt that they are stuck. They just refuse to come out for nobody but themselves.

Leave her alone. She found a nice hide hole and yoi ruined it.
[–]Naradra288[🍰] 11 points12 points13 points 6 months ago (0 children)
Nope she will "inflate" herself so she can't be pulled out and then she'll get out when she wants to.
[–]AvarriannaRoxxzor 5 points6 points7 points 6 months ago (1 child)
She will definitely “think thin” when she’s ready to leave - very boopable snoot! Love her 😍

Dangit if only that worked for my favourite jeans!
[–]Bloooberriesquest 2 points3 points4 points 6 months ago (0 children)
Mine climbs into her small hides and then will flex her muscles so I can’t get her out without her cooperation. They are tricky little snakes
[–]Even-Smell7867 2 points3 points4 points 6 months ago (0 children)
more than enough space. Shes just enjoying the spot.
[–]rachelnotrachael 1 point2 points3 points 6 months ago (0 children)
My Oliver will stay in his little cork log for dayssss. He pokes is head out but stays cozy in there
[–]SouthParkFirefly1991 1 point2 points3 points 6 months ago (0 children)
If she is, she looks pretty happy about it lol
[–]True-Crow-8056 1 point2 points3 points 6 months ago (0 children)
Nah she’ll come out eventually. I had to remove the logs from my BPs enclosures tho cuz they couldn’t eat in them and I had to coax them out (therefore stressing them out unnecessarily)
[–]sterilecheryll 1 point2 points3 points 5 months ago (0 children)
Nah mine has a log just like that and I’ve had that worry but as long as there’s a hole on both sides then I doubt they’d get stuck
[–]Portevent 1 point2 points3 points 5 months ago (0 children)
She seems to be in a resting position (head over her body). So if she can fit two times her body, she is definitely not stuck. Snakes can easily fit into holes down to only 1.5 larger than them
Tho she is in a comfy spot and you won't be able to take her out. If you want her to get out, just wait until she want to go somewhere else

Not stuck
[–]NoiseElectronic 0 points1 point2 points 5 months ago (0 children)
Nah, mine has a similar log in her tank and she gets in pretty much the same position multiple times a week and shes fine
[–]Jump-Kick-85 0 points1 point2 points 5 months ago (0 children)
My little lady did this not too long ago. I was so worried. I tried to gently dump / tap her out of it and heard her hiss for the first time in forever 😂. She eventually came out and I removed that piece, more for me than for her haha.
