Hi Guys,
I have a 15 month old male ball python who I just gave my first bath to today. The water was warm water but not hot and when I first put him in he wasn't too sure. After he got used to the water he actually started moving quickly under water and kept sticking his tongue out under water as if he was really enjoying himself. He kept bumping into the walls of the container I was bathing him in. After I got him out, he was much more energetic and seemed A LOT happier. However I couldn't tell as I'm new to owning a snake.
In short, does it sound like my ball python enjoyed his bath or was it stressful for him?
Also when he was in the water, his body felt really relaxed and there was pink stuff coming out from his vent? (The pink stuff was just the inside of his vent) I presume that this is just the water being soaked up by what ever is in the vent? (I was told this by a vet I know).
Thanks,
Dan
