    Does your snake love to drink "rainwater"

    My snake just loves to drink the droplets on the glass from the mister. I wonder if its a instinct thing since rainwater is some of the purest water you can get in nature.

    hehe - my boy is rubbing his nose along the glass drinking the droplets right now. It almost looks like he's writing something!

    Re: Does your snake love to drink "rainwater"

    It is an instinct. But not because it is pure but because many animals in arid regions lap up the morning dew that condenses on their bodies or surrounding vegitation. some lizards won't drink standing water but will drink droplets that drip down leaves or glass.

    howe that helps.
