hd fred for 4 weeks now and havent seen ihm drink once, or even go near the water bowl, could he be doing it at night? just a little worried, he's only a hatchling so I imagine I wouldnt notice any water gone
also the bowl is in the cool end

thanks.

I've got a little one that I've never seen drink. Your's is probably sipping away during the night when you're fast asleep!

I wouldn't worry,he's probably craftily sipping away while you're not around.
Its rare I've seen mine drink. The only time I've seen Falcor drink was once while I was still holding him and putting him back in the viv.
Loki came out and had a good guzzle the other morning,it was like a mojor event in my household lol!

We have had Sid just over a year now and only seen him drink maybe 6 times in total. Frank always has a drink straight after downing a meal but i have never seen Keith drink at all. I guess they would drink in the middle of the night when all is quiet and still. Like Lousie says they will drink when they need to as long as fresh water is available.

I have only ever seen one of my corn snakes drinking.

As long as the water is there he will drink it if he needs so don't worry.
