So I did some searches on the forum and didn't find much.

My corn snake is MIA, I've been out of town for a week, I handled her last week and my girlfriend (who lives with me) was watering the snake so its safe to assume it was around during the week.


Can any one give suggestions as to where it might hide?

try a pinkie attached to a glue trap and wait for the snake to come to u?

only a suggestion but a variation of this method might work:p

Try looking in between the mattresses and box spring, check closets and anywhere warm. If you don't have carpeting you can sprinkle some flour down to see if it leaves a trail. Place food and water near a hide in an area you think it is most likely in, it won't go very far after eating.

Could be anywhere dude! 1st, how big is it? I went on holiday 2 years ago, and left a grandparent (I know...) in charge of my cornsnake. He got out, and we found him 3 days later in a shoe under my bed, on the other side of the room. Warm, dark places might be your best bet...both suggestions above I would go with!

They "usually" will follow the edge of wall ,furniture etc... nestled in somewhere . mine went under a dresser then coiled up in a drawer, it was the closest piece of furniture.

The snake is about 60 cm long, and about one to one and a half cm thick


I'll look everywhere this evening, thanks for the suggestions; also is the glue trap really a good idea or was that suggested in jest?
