Got a digital thermometer? They're ~£5 on Amazon if you don't, then you can be certain what temperature your water is at. Maybe a cooking thermometer would work. I was told 27 degrees hottest, so that'd be luke warm to our touch I think...but I used a thermometer.

I do my baths at 27/28 and have it very swallow, you don't want the snake to be swimming, just slithering so like no more than halfway up it's body.

Can I ask why you want to bath him?



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3
