Water hater?

[BP Newbie]

My lil girl can't stand to be in water even if it's shallow enough for her to lay in. She had a not so great shed, she got about 90% off but her neck still has some 2 days after she shed the rest so I'm letting her lay in warm water for a little bit, but she really hates it. I have balled up paper towels for her to coil or rest her head on, but all she does is try and get out any ideas?

What kind of enclosure is she in?

When you say "warm" do you mean warm to you?

The water should be in the low to mid 80's. I have a watch with a thermometer I put in the water so I can tell when the warm is good for a snake. Warm to you will be hit to a snake.

That said. Mine will also try to get out of the water. I just hold it while it is in the water and she calms down.

There are methods (such has letting your snake slither through a warm damp towel) that are a lot less stressful to your snake than taking a bath.

Bathing your snake is really not a great idea it is stressful and stress can cause several other issues.

Don't bother your snake, just correct the issue.

Raise your humidity, which is clearly too low to 50%. Next time you see your snake dull out and go "blue" bump up the humidity even more for a week.

A bit of shed isn't stressing your snake... bathing it is
