Tap VS Bottled Water?
What's your personal preference and why? How many snakes do you have to water? 
Personally, I use both. I'll use a bottle of water sometimes if I'm too lazy to walk to the kitchen to fill the bowl.
Is one or the other better for the snake? I don't think they need fluoride like we do.

Re: Tap VS Bottled Water?
Depends where you live. If the water is good for you to drink, it's good for your animals too. Don't over think it.

Everyone here drinks the same water, human, dogs, snakes, rats, mice etc.
As for are many do I water? Anywhere between 55 to 200 snakes depending on the time of the year.
You can always age your water for 24 hours or filter it using a Brita filter.

I do not use bottled water for anything so I wouldn't think about using it for my snakes. That may be due to the fact that Denver has some of the cleanest water in the country.

45 % of bottled water comes straight from the tap.
To the cautious ones, do you know where you water brand came from?
I am fortunate to live in area that has good and good tasting water. All of my pets drink what I do.
The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

Where are you?
If I ever come to your area to visit I wish to come prepared.

I dont think what comes out the faucet is worse than what ball pythons would normally drink in the wild.
