okay, calm down! what you need to do is try and look for sings of her-dirt,droopings, ect... and if that fails try and think like a snake(i know its strange) -where would you hide?-couch cussions, closet, under a bed,cramped areas with dark spaces. And be prepared to find her when you least expect it! that's what I did when my frog escaped. and I found her hopping in front of the tv! the best of luck ~anolelover2

Hey Cali,,dont look just low, look up and around to, they like to climb. You can also put some baby powder along the walls and around the tank,,this will help you see any signs that she might be around. If she is a hatchling, look in the tinest spot imaginable.
