I found my missing baby snake!!!

[Catherine]

I have a baby snake that is very special and I plan to keep her. So instead of a safe baby snake container, like a foolish indulgent mother, I gave her something bigger. She got out! I have seen no sign of her anywhere and it has been a week. I am starting to fear the worst.

I am giving a larger cage to a friend for his rat. He was on his way over to pick it up and I decided to get it out of the storage area. I forgot I had a glue trap down behind that cage.(I need to stop using them) When I shifted the cage there was my baby on the trap. I would never have looked there if I wasn't giving a cage to a friend.

It is an emergency situation for the snake, but I have most of the glue off. I am going to take her up to the reptile centre because they have had more experience with this. I think she is going to survive. Her eyes are alright and her jaw moves normally. Even if we don't get all the glue off right away I think she can eat and she can poop.
I think she is going to make it.

I got my baby back. It is a miracle. I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
