    Re: water

    trust me, your BP knows about water. Wrinkled skin can be a sign of dehydration. If you are really worried, try soaking it in a tub of warm water for about 15-30 mins. Just make sure you don't fill it too full, only about 1/3- 1/2 of its body height (1/2"-1" deep)

    Re: water

    BPs get most of their fluids from food. So, if your snake is eating normally, it shouldn't be dehydrated. But, as Josh said, if you are worried, you can try a soak.

    NOT WARM WATER, you should only soak you snake in tepid water, neither warm nor cold.
