Just wondering what everyone's thoughts on the water they give their snakes?
I use tap water that has been put through a Brita filter... will that be ok? |

I just use tap water stright from the tap. Some people leave the water for a few days to get the chlorine out and some use bottled water. |

Plain tap water for me. Im sure we had a vote on this a few months back and the majority of us just use un-stood, normal tap water ^^ |

Is it essential to remove the chlorine or just a preference? |

i don't think there's any documented problems in snakes, so i'd say it's a preference.
out of interest is this dilemma some thing we (humans) have created? i'm guessing that people who drink bottled water give bottled to their snakes, and people who drink water straight from the tap give that to their snakes? |

cool stuff... brita filters are wicked... although dont be fooled by people saying that if you filter cheap vodka it makes it taste better... it doesnt and then your water tastes of vodka for ages.... lame |
