Hi Melindalea,

If a large animal had come in and stolen your bird, there would be a noticeable point of access. Did you find one? If yes, what was it like? Is there any chance the bird simply escaped on his own? The idea of placing a ringneck cage inside a python cage seems a fair way to keep out a larger snake, but might be difficult to implement. I think you've done the best thing by bringing the survivors inside.
