Oops...loose lizard

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
wow, I hope you find him!

About 4 years ago, my black rat snake got out after my friend left the lid ajar open. We left the top open unconsciously, and two weeks later he crawled back into the tank to be fed :P

Lol, I have had that happen a few times with a couple species of geckos. They're one of the worst things to have loose because they have 360˚ of climbing choices! I have some ideas for traps if you're interested. Good luck finding the tricky fella!

My geckos have done that a few times, and they always go for the ceiling or blinds. Then they just kinda look at me like they know the won. Good luck finding him. At least he can't climb that well, I think.

The thing that sucks is that most of the geckos I had were nocturnal species. When they get loose they hide. I've had house geckos (go figure) loose for months at a time before I found them.

Wow, that would be annoying. They camoflouge really well too. Luckily, mine is bright green, so he's kinda hard to miss. Well at least they were in their natural environment (that was a bad joke).
 
hey i just though of this,my large bearded got out back in the day and i hoped he would turn up,favorite reptile i ever had.Then the room started to smell and long story short,he dug under a cinder block and it caved in on him.He died and i cried.Life goes on but just make sure something like thats not going on.
