Hi Just a quick question I have seen a couple of people bathing their snakes in a bath - is this
- necessary to do if so how often?
- is there anything you need to be careful of - obviously not too deep
- etc, etc.
- any reason why NOT too
Really I'm just curious if its a good thing to do as teh care sheet doesn't mention it I believe |

thanks. Yep we have a drinking bowl big enough for it to get into if it needs. |

It is not absolutely necessary for their well being and will freak some snakes.
Instead of a bath, put a larger water dish, dog food bowl or Pyrex dish into the viv or spare RUB or tub. This give the snake the choice whether to take a dip or not.
Sometimes you might find it taking a dip in its water dish when it is coming up for a shed. It can also be a sign that it is affected by mites and trying to ease the irritation.
