They dont really need bathing to be honest, unless they have mites or trouble shedding.

But if you do do it warm ish water is advised and no deeper than half the height of the snake i believe. Though having never done it i am just advising what i've read elsewhere

Agreed. They dont need a bath unless its a health thing. If you have a large enough water bowl the corn can soak in that if it wants to bathe itself.

Or if they havent pooped in ages, the warm water helps them 'go' personnally Kellogs likes in the bath, though he hasnt been in it in ages
