It is five or six feet in length and is shiny and beautiful and appears to be very healthy. But it never had access to water, other than occasional soaks in a bathtub. After being placed in its new enclosure, it has had its head in the water dish for hours now, appearing to alternately drink and soak. Is this OK? Can a thirsty snake drink too much water, or will it self-regulate?
