I’ve had my girl Eckie for 6 years now and she’s an amazing little lady. I do let her run around the house a lot and try to give her as much time out the viv as possible (when it’s warm enough). Although sometimes she’d go ‘missing’ this was never a problem as I know all her go to spots and would quickly find her with in 10 minuets. However 3 days ago I came home from work and saw she wasn’t in her viv and immediately panicked as she’s never gotten out by her self before. I searched all her normal spots and she was no where, I have rearranged funtifure in every room, cleaned the whole house in an effort to find her with no luck.
I even took the panels off my bathtub to see if she’d managed to get under there as I know they love dark small places but even this proved hopeless! I’m really worried now as I know she has to be inside somewhere but I know the chances of me personally finding her are very slim as I’ve looked everywhere imaginable and even slightly reachable.
I’ve left out fruit and water dishes in some rooms in the hope she will come out but she takes little interest in food so I doubt the scent of fruit will lure her. Last night I even thought I could her what sounded like her scratching which propelled me to frantically search again where I thought the sound was coming from but there was no sign of her.
I know beardies can survive a long time when they’re in there sleepy ‘hiding’ state but the worry is killing me and I wondered if anyone had advice or can share the outcomes of similar expieriences you’ve had.
Is there a chance at all she will come out on her own accord?
Is there something obvious I could do to lure her out?
I want to keep looking but it feels really useless as I’ve literally checked everywhere over and over again!
Please help! Thank you!
