Okay so i live in a small three bedroom apartment and i usually stay up really late, two weeks ago i forgot to just the cage on the exoterra and my snake got out. it is a 6-8 month aru/biak and it was neglecting food before this. It seems as if the apartment is always active but i have tried several times staking it out over night with heat lamps in various rooms to see if it would go to the heat lamps but no luck. i have looked under all appliances near the furnace, completely raveged my room, taken apart subwoofers, almost everything imaginable i have absolutely no idea were it would be! right now i have its cage on the floor with the door open hoping it goes in sometime and keep the temperature at about 69 degrees. is there a given amount of time these snakes typically survive without much humidity, food and water???? if so please let me know im getting desperate.

Try keeping the door to the cage open incase he is looking for a perch. Also try the clausets and anywhere with rods or hangers he could perch on. You should turn up the heat in the house to high 70s to 80. You can make some small perch setups with shoe boxes and clothes hangers and place a food item in them over night. Place them in each room and hope that he eats and perches until you find him the next morning. Good luck.
