Ok my pet snake uri is soaking in his dish bowl all day its actually a little water in a butter bowl with a hole cut out he sits in his hide all night the temps are 90 on his basking and 80 on his cool side.. he has 2 hides one being a half log and the other being the butter bowl.. he is pretty active ill post some pictures when i find out how on this site but i aquired him from a breeder 3/24/2010 i keep a journal for him he has ate a fresh killed fuzzy mouse 3/27/2010 4/1/2010 4/6/2010 4/11/2010 i have not fed him since because he is getting that milky color in his eyes and becoming a dull color so i figure he is goin to shed.. but i didnt think him soaking all day was something they did
