My friend needs advice!!!

Today one of my friends left his baby panther on a perch in his living room and when he checked back on him, the cham was missing. It also turns out that the kingsnake he bought from the reptile auction a few weeks ago also escaped his aquarium! Do you guys have any tips on how he should handle this?

what do you mean? They are both still missing? uh, what do kingsnakes eat???

Look for him after dark with a flashlight, he will be easiest to see then.ask your friend to do a better job of containing his animals.

When I have had a couple of baby panthers escape their tubs, they always try to find a higher perch. Tell him to check tops of window blinds/curtains or anything he could climb. I found one of the babies perched ontop of a 5 foot 1x2 leaning against the wall 10 feet away from the tub he got out of. I did not have any snakes and I was worried enough. Hope he finds him and the snake (separately of course)

I think kingsnakes eat mice and lizards. The snake may have been missing for a few days prior because he was out of town. So this may be a bad situation

Let's hope the snake didn't eat the chameleon. That would suck.

the snake will seek heat--so a blanket with a heating pad under it on the floor over night may attract the kingsnake.

He just found the cham, but the snake is still loose somewhere
