>>...longest time AWOL.

>>

>>As many of you read, I found my Baird's which was missing since 9/3...nearly 8 months ago. I think I recall a post of a corn missing for 9 months turning up. What's the longest AWOL story you've got?

>>

>>And I was (and still am) amazed at how much this snake has grown. I had put his cage out in the basement, thinking that he may crawl back in at some point. Well...he has clearly outgrown his cage, hide, and the size of prey items that I was feeding him. He's been eating something! There's plenty of mice around here, but he would have probably had to find some nests to raid given his size. He was on large pinkies when he escaped. He could probably take a hopper now! Duffy





My longest escapee, that I got lucky enough to find again, was around five months.

He didn't get as lucky as your bairdi.

He hadn't grown at all. I don't think he ate while "gone"

It took a while for him to start growing again after I found him but he is doing great now.
