BP Swimming?
Do BPs enjoy swimming in bathtubs every once in a while?
I know my corn snake loves it, but with the BPs different body style will it be able to swim too?

I think it's advised against bathing BPs because it generally just stresses them out and it removes the natural oils from their skin that helps them shed.

lol, I've been told by people that it is good for them once a month, but maybe I'm trusting the wrong people.

I do think that some corn snakes like swimming- A freind's corn snake cage had a corner sealed off used as a water bowl and sometimes it would swim.... I hink that BP are specifically land snakes though.

I don't know if the snake really likes "like" the swim for say, but I dont see the harm in doing it once monthly.

Theres a difference between offering it and forcing it. Once again, im curious as to how you can tell that the snake enjoyed it...?
Also, i wouldnt consider bps anymore terrestrial than corns.

Yeah one time my BP crawled through her poo, so I had to give her a bath. Boy she did NOT like that. She was constantly trying to get out of the tub. My beardie though, loves his bath time
