What do you guys use for

Water buckets? Is there anything in particular that stands out as a good choice for, say, a 7' burm? I've taken some quick looks around, but what I've seen seems to be rather easy to tip over. Thanks

I use big rubbermaid sweater boxes, they are about 8-10 inches deep and 1/2 full lets them soak without spillage and guarantees water for at least 14 days if necessary

Thanks Rev! I'll have to take another look now :)

Dishpans work pretty well too, or the kitten-sized litterboxes.

some people say its good to have a water dish that your burm can soak in, but for my money is not nessesary. not once have i seen my burm soak itself in the water. i use a large plasitc water dish thing that you put under plants when you water them so the exces water get trapped in those, they are cheap and work great

I just use an old kooking pan . a large pan so that she can't tip it over when she drinks..
soaking should be done for shedding but instead of soaking I spray everyday . And then again what kind of waterdisk should U use for a 16 ft long burm?????
a bathtub would be the only thing that is capable to have a large snake in without tipping over.

You could always use a kiddie wading pool. That's what I would use, anyway.
