This weekend, I went to water everyone and found one of my snakes AWOL [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_confused.gif[/img] And no, it was not a hot [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] It was a pretty little Speckled Kingsnake. He was in the large caging system (not a Precision) and i guess when we were moving it, we must have knocked a rear vent loose and not noticed it. I tore the basement apart looking for the little traveller to no avail. So I laid out my flour lines on each wall, around the furnace and hot water heater and used it to divide the basement into kindof a grid. If he moves, i will know. I also made a standard funnel style snake trap and set it next to the furnace baited with a mouse. i think he is the only snake i own that bait will actually work.
Here is the kicker. I keep every nice looking shed from my hots to give away at educational programs and the like. After rearranging, i had some of them on the floor. While looking for the king, I found a small 1.5" piece of Canebrake shed torn up pretty bad. I looked around and ALL of the venomous sheds that had been on the floor were gone! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img] That little scumbag ate all my sheds!!! [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif[/img]
Needless to say, I threw a couple copperhead sheds in the trap to bait it [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] Hope we find hime soon.
