Juvenile Kingsnake Disappearing Act

I have recently purchased a juvenile California Banded Kingsnake and was unable to locate him inside his terrarium. I took everything out of it looking for it and was unsuccessful.
We put mice in wire cages with an opening just large enough for the snake to enter. We had no snake the following morning and all that day until night time. Lo and behold, there was a kingsnake! We have since figured out that the snake had not escaped. The faux tree branch in his habitat has a hole just big enough for the snake. So, if you have any small snakes and can't find them, check your faux trees. Good luck to all cold-blooded fanatics.
