i know there are posts like this all the time, but i dont really have the time to look at the moment, because im kinda panicing at the moment. My 2 year old ball escaped from my tank in a time span of about 12-24 hours ago, we are frantically searching through my room, and the rest of the house because the door was left open. i had just realized that he was missing about 2 hours ago when i went to feed him and change his water. any suggestions as to where to look, and how far could he have traveled in the past 12 to 24 hours? thank you all very much for your advice in advance.

well seach the area around the tank mine got out and he was only a couple of feet from the tank under a monopoly game.if you cant find him that way.you could make a snake lure.

get a shoe box or rubbermaid contare cut a hole in the sideput a fresh killed mouse or rat rats smell more so that may be better.also have an undertank heater under the box so he will eat then stay there since its warm to digest his food.

some people may disagree but it worked with my neighbors snake. i

wish you well

look behind and under stuff thats were i find all my snakes and lizards when they get out have found everyone that has gotten out that way

I found mine in the closet, wedged into a space I didn't think he could fit into.

rule I learned, if you cant get into the spot easily hes probably there laughing at you. But some dissagree. Good luck.
