Haha, Caught him Naky in the tub. :)

This brings up a question for everyone. Other than the humid hides, should he be given warm bath, say every week or so? I know it helps them release poo and helps with shed, is there anything else a nice bath does? How long should I keep him in a warm bath?

Leave a large enough water dish for your snake to decide when he wants a bath. Only force him into one if the situation warrants it. (Defecation or shedding problems, etc.)

I'm with Invictus on that one. We usually only soak our snakes when they're having shedding difficulties, or when we want to "de-stink" the corns after they make a mess. :)

pro exotics soaks their bloods on a regular basis, it helps keep healthy skin, digestion and all that good stuff. i dont think once a week would hurt, my vet told me to soak my bp twice a week.

[killer Cichlidz]

I got him from a breeder in AR his name is Jeff

I wouldn't soak your guy. I agree with Invictus, just leave a large enough bowl for him. If he needs to soak, he will soak himself. Snakes know what they need better than anyone.

Also these snakes defecate very infrequently. Usually they just go whenever they shed. Just because its been a lil while doesn't necessarily mean they need out assistance ;)
