A python that shocked a five-year-old-fashioned boy and his family when they discovered it in their toilet might have been on the loose in the area for around two months, it emerged today. The boy discovered the unwelcome company when the boy opened the lid in his family bathroom in South end. Following media coverage of the snake’s rescue his holder has now come forward, the BBC echo.
Reggie, the majestic python, escaped when Tim Yardley moved a few houses away and he had almost given up hope of ever finding him. The harmless snake, measuring touching 3ft petrified Laura Cowell and her son when it appeared in the family’s toilet last Wednesday. “He was frantic, and shaking, and I could tell something was wrong, but that was not what I expected,” she said. Local dragon specialist Rob Yeldham, bearer of Leigh-on-Sea pet workshop Scales and Fangs came to the rescue, prising the python from the porcelain.
His bearer recognised Reggie from the media insurance and contacted Yeldham to show him photos
