....... and the sometime was late this afternoon !
I was in the process of cleaning out the Lab cages for the multis . Putting back the LAST female of three, she decided to make a break for it , beejeesus these buggers cant half jump ahm sure she donned red pants ( supermulti ) afore she leapt .
So there's me , an escaped multi , an over expectant cat ( no not pregnent , he's a Tom ),a closed door in snake room . The game begins.
Spots her right at the back of the snake rack , on the floor . Manages to get her into a large round plastic jug ,yippee . Five mins was all it took .
Till I tried to put her back into Lab cage ..... Multi 2 - Pete 0
This time she went UNDER the incubater ( converted fridge ) Ahm sure ah heard the wee bugger snigger. I impresonated ''Oor Wullie '' for over an hour , waiting , waiting and more waiting . Tried temting her with some millet spray , almost worked . Eventually had to move the 'bator ( not an easy task cos theres a rack on top of it ) Finally managed to get her into a cardboard tube and , very carefully , back into cage with her other famales whereupon she must have told them cos ahm deff sure I heard them snigger ! _________________ 3.7.0 Royals

This reminds me of when a colony of Leaf Cutter Ants decided to go walk abouts in my bedroom!!!!!!!
The little bug*ers had made a floating bridge ( knowingly or not, i am not sure ) from discarded leaves and debris, and had managed to climb the sides of their enclosure. I kept finding worker ants for days after!!!! _________________ Fraser Gilchrist
