Eddie on the run !!!

Woke up this morning to find a Snake Poo in the middle of the dining room floor...
Apparently when I changed the lock from Queenies old cabinet I didn't close the glass tightly....
So after searching under everything in the lounge room, 3 bedrooms & nervously looking in the motor housing of the Fridge & freezer, where it's nice & warm, we checked in the cupboard under his tank....
I moved the Candle supply box & B☼ saw this little head poke out to see what all the fuss was about !!!! We are very happy that he decided to have a wander around the floor & leave us some evidence of his escape... He could of been out for a couple of days before we noticed as he has been living under his grass matting & only popping out for a feed or quick stretch once or twice a week...
 He has done this once before when he was but a wee whipper snapper of a few months old when Someone  **coughs into hand** didn't close the glass properly after changing the water... He was found in the storage cupboard under the cabinet that time as well....
He be back home & happy now trying to find a way to hide under his grass....



Have a great one all....

  1. Hi Rob, what sort of snake is Eddie? Is he a python/carpet snake?

  2. Hi Jo...
    Eddie is a Spotted Python or Antaresia maculosa...
    He is the most mellow of snakes.... We did have 2 but Queenie was sold due to her very aggressive behaviour.... Have since found out that She is a He & it was probably a territorial reaction to him smelling Eddie...
    Have a great one Jo...
