To give you guys a little background , I bought a 1.7m red tail boa from a female friend's husband.
When I came back from work today I noticed It was having problems shedding. So I took the snake and placed it in the bath in luke warm water.
This worked like a bomb BUT this is the problem - I left the bathroom for Just 5 seconds and the snake decided it wanted to go through the handrailing on the side of the bath.He is now stuc between the handrail and the bath. I have tried pulling gently to no avail.
I don't want to touch the snake too hard as it's skin will still be very sensitive.
He can not go any further than he is now. He is also making very strange hissing noises which I guess isfrom difficulty breathing.
How can I get him out without stressing or hurting him
I swear I'm never gonna leave a snake alone again!
