LOL Second time my gopher has been out this month. She is about 3 ft long, and she somehow figured a trick to her lid. I was convinced the first time she escaped that I left it open after feeding as I had to go change a frog's cage. But this proves that it was not my fault the first time. Either way, she is still at large and has been since Tuesday. I am hoping she shows up soon (last time she was gone for 12 hrs before being discovered in my dresser), and to top it off, she's a breeding age double het for snow san diego. What a bummer. Just this week two of my snakes were stolen out of the biology lab. The freshman that did that deserves to be paddled haha. A lovely little Nerodia rhombifera and a pretty, young Elaphe obsoleta with a great disposition. The only satisfaction I can gain is that I know whoever took that Nerodia is being musked and bitten to death lol. Little loaded gun that he is. Sad anyway though. 3 snakes in the past week gone...Anyway, just felt like venting. I havn't had an escape ever except for these two times this month since I have been keeping snakes(since I was 3 or so). Anyway, thanks for reading :-D Andy
