Uro under hot tub

maneatingorchid Apr 18, 2004 12:17 PM

I was holding Embrodak outside, and he bit me and busted off his leash and ran under a 2,000 lb hottub. It's rocks under it, he can build a nice burrow and stuff, how do I get him out? There is only one entrance to the under hot tub are, I've been waiting there with food- trying to entice him out.

Use a PVC pipe capped at one end with his favourite food, usually they feel safe in the pipe. It worked for me with many reptiles.
Good luck

Thank you! I don't have him back yet, but the pipe is in place and filled with food, I'll just keep checking. In the mean time, there is more than sufficient heat there for him.

Update: my parents saw him out basking today, but couldn't get to him in time. He ran back under, avoiding my live trap and the PVC tube. It's going to be really warm this week, so he'll be out.
