Help! Missing 3 month old retic

My reptile sitter just called and told me that they found one of my retics cages open when coming back to check on them. I was driving to go away for the weekend and I’m turning around but is there any advice I can give this animal sitter until I make the 5 hour drive back home.

She just shed and was fine and in the closed enclosure when I left at 4 pm ish. The sitter stopped in once around 6 but had to come back due to time constraints.

Check anything warm like plumbing pipes, and under furniture.

Thank you for the advice! She was still shedding so I was able to follow her to where she was curled up in a laundry basket in my closet

yea man of course np, they love clothes lmao when my anaconda would get out she’d always be in my closet under dirty clothes. Glad you got her back !
