Lost Boa :(
Yesterday i took out my BCI and put in its separate feeding container.
i let her eat her food and i usually wait at least 45 minutes before touching her to put her back in her tank. during this time i was watching spongebob to pass time and she escaped, this is not uncommon for her because she is a notorious escape artist, the only problem is that i cant find her this time
any ideas, i have tried to find her for the last 3 days
i have searched #$!#$!#$!#$! near the whole house and i cant find her

Search really CLOSE to the container that it escaped from. I guarantee you it hasn't gone far. They will immediately curl up in the closest secure space.
Good luck. Most people will agree that they're only found after you've given up.

Like Brandon said, probably hasn't gone too far. This is one of the reasons why I don't feed in a separate container. Next time, keep her in the same room with you when you feed so you can keep an eye on her. I'm not trying to be harsh because we all makes mistakes, but stuff like this can be easily prevented.
.
Good luck.

I agree with everybody else, 2 times that I can remember having an escapee, they didn't go far, a few years ago it was a little guy who was hiding behind his tub I didn't push all the way in on the heat tape. A few weeks ago it was a possibly gravid girl who just crawled into the empty cage below her. I got REAL lucky on that one. Just think close, dark, warm. It'll be there. Inside recliner chairs and couches are always a possibility too. Good Luck, Nick

Yup, I've had my BCI escape twice and both times I found him hiding behind his cage!

I just checked on Lola and she was not in her cage. I checked under the tables and then the swivel chair across the room. And sure enough she is curled under the swivel attachment.
Mine have never gone very far!
