Escape!!!!

Wellll hoooooly....

I got this new rack from a friend, and an amazing rack it was. He had the large holes cut in the top of two tubs for easy access and ventilation and he never ever had a problem with it, it fits really snug to the top of the rack, AND, the hole is towards the center so a leo would have to stand up in the middle of the tub on its hind legs and PULL itself up and SQUEEZE down the space between the tub top and the rack top in order to get out....


Let me introduce you to BERA THE AMAZING ESCAPING BELL ALBINO!!!!!!


Holy crap, I went in to top up every-ones water and mealies and imagine my surprise when I pulled out the the tub only to find it vacant...

cue panic....

Dee and I searched the herp room high and low and wonders never cease, we found her under one of our tank stands!!! We managed to wrangle her and lets just say she has moved quarters and now have a nice secure HOLE free lid on her....

I was freaking, Dee was freaking.... the only one who didn't seem to freakin' too badly was Bera!!

That's a snake and a leo in two weeks, folks, no matter how secure you think your tanks are, double check and make them TWICE as secure as you think they need to be, cause there animals WILL find a way!

WooHoo! So, there is hope for finding my missing geckos and snake. I lost a Milksnake ans 4 Leos in the past 2 months

I really miss my Nelsons Milksnake! The Leos were 1 Jungle 100% Het Bell from Kelli , she escaped while I was cleaning her tub, and I was going to use her on my Jungle Bell Project, and 3 Double Het Bell x Blizzard from my Blazing Bell Blizzard project! They escaped because there is no back to the area of the rack that they are in and I pushed the tub too far backed, and they hopped out. Man this Bites!!!!!

If my lost Ruthveni makes it to la la land, you and I will be producing some amazing looking animals. Call it a breeder loan.

Oh, I'm so glad you found her!! It is encouraging to hear so many happy endings, although I'm sure I would still freak out if anyone were to escape here!!

I had a day-old hatchling escape for a week. Thought for sure it was a goner!!! Found him when I kicked the door from my door draft on my way to work and he squeaked. Amazing! Skinny tail, but made a very hasty recovery. Still missing 3 corns tho!
