Look what I found in my boas water
I found these little worm looking things in my hypo salmon red tail's water. I don't know what they are and I never have seen them. There was no poop in the water dish. And the water wasn't an off color. I looked in the bedding and could not find any trace of these strange looking things. I plan to take him to the vet ASAP but I would get better sleep if I at least new what this is. PLEASE HELP!

Are they living and moving or dead? It looks like some kind of larve. What kind of bedding are you using?

Re: Look what I found in my boas water
When was the last time you cleaned the water bowl? Has the water been in there for awhile?
If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.

Almost look like mosquito larvae. Are they squirming around?

Re: Look what I found in my boas water
I just got back from a weeks vacation and my friend said he never changed the water. So yes the water has been sitting there for a while > and they were all dead. Not moving at all

I really wouldn't freak out. Obviously a vet visit doesn't really hurt, but stagnant water attracts insects, but they're not going to hurt anything as long as you clean them out. Any dangerous parasites to snakes are invisible at that stage. So, gross, but not vet visit worthy, IMO.
