Hi there I think I'm a very lucky person I only got my snake a about a week ago and shes such a loverly snake kind everything and she's about to shed my first ever shed !! But back to the subject I have just seen her drinking and I thought it's rare to see a snake drink is it ? Am I one of the special ones or just the common newbie snake nut job?

The only one of my four I ever see drink is Ripley, and usually because he likes to be held over the water bowl, for some reason, for his drink. Don't worry though, she'll be drinking!

Corn snakes are well known to drink lots. I would see Spot drink every day. The best one is just after a feed he will drink for ages to wash the mouse down. Its normal, and a good thing, helps keep them hydrated for when they shed and poop. Your not a newbie snake nut job, just a snake nut job like the rest of us.
