Phoebe, my grey-banded king who's probably only a year old, got out of her tank within the last two days. There is only one heat register she could get into but it's up 7 7inch carpeted stairs in the kitchen, where there is also a toasty fridge. There are only two other places she could go. Outside (where it was about 55 two days ago and now it's below freezing), where she would have to feat three cement 8inch stairs to get outside or into a very large wood pile. Also in the crawlspace under our house, where there is a furnace, but it's very dusty in there and we didn't notice any snake tracks around the only warm place. It is winter and she's been funny about feeding, could she have possibly sought out a more secure location to hibernate? Is it possible for her to climb all those stairs? I mean it was about six inched from her thermometer boost on her tank to the lip, so plausible? What are some good traps to set for her to find (humid hides, etc.) Please help! If she got outside she definitely won't be making it through a montana winter!
