    Default HELP!! Prison Break!! FBT Escapee on the loose! APB!!

    Help! I woke up just a little while ago and found BOTH on my FBT out of their tank. They were in there 7 hours ago, so not sure how long they've had. I found one right away behind my toilet where there is a leak so the tile stays moist. She seems okay for now, but I know the last thing on that floor was cleaner so I'll be watching her close.

    The other one is no where to be found. Any suggestions? I have put bowls of fresh water in the middle of every room to maybe lure her out. I have a two bedroom apt with only three rooms and two bathrooms. The outside doors cannot be squeezed under, but she's somewhere and I can't find her. Looked under all furniture, fridge, stove, washer dryer, hot water heater, dishwasher, etc.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thanks

    They usually follow the walls, so you're better off putting hides up against the walls and in the corners.

    Well, we found our girl....but too late. She was in my roommate's boot. I had a little liquid burial for her today. I will have to go now and get my other FBT a new tank mate. She is acting very lonely now.

    Sorry to hear about your frog. The FBT is one of the best escape artists out there. You must have a "locking" lid to keep them in. They are very persistant and will keep trying to get out of an enclosure. I'm glad you're other one is doing okay.
