i just built these custom cages and the top cage is one cage divided into 2... 1 side for my ribbon, one side for 2green anoles, 1 brown anole and one green tf. yesterday there was a lot of noise(like banging around)so i looked up and my ribbon somehow got into the anole/tf cage! and it was like midnight so i was not in the mood to deal with this! he didnt eat for over 2 weeks becuase i just got him a lot of fish but they all died from heat before he got to eat them so i had to throw them away. needless to say 1 of the green anoles also got out somehow and it turns out he ATE my green tree frog! i was sooo mad! actually i still am. anyway i opened the front and tried to grab him and he lunged at my hand trying to bite me(dont no if u read my other post) so instinctively i pulled my hand back and now he is out somewhere in my room! i looked for him untill about 2 AM. but i really had to get to sleep so i could get up for work(thats where i am now- i watch 2 kids)so he is still out, im hoping he doesnt go under my door and get into the rest of my house and i have no clue how to find a little ribbon snake even though he is an adult! who is also now fat becuase the little prick(im trying to keep this post clean!)ate my treefrog.i have had the tf for a while and was even feeding him in a seperate container just so he would stay healthy! grrr... does anyone have any suggestions on finding him? uh oh... i hope he doesnt find my fish aquarium... sigh...i have my preggie swordtail in there and if he its her... omg the snake is causing so much trouble im starting to think i should have just stuck with my lizards(i have very many of them besides the lil anoles!)
thankx 4 the help.
