Cleaning your ladies off after laying

What does everyone use for cleaning off their females after they lay?

What i did was have a different tub setup with newspaper and a different water dish and once i wrassled her off the eggs i just put her in the new tub. By the next day she was settled in and a week later she pounded a rat. :gj:

I throw em right in the shower and rinse them off, towel dry then wax... lol!!

All get a different tub and go into a different slot in the rack.

Forgot to add that, yes i put them in a different slot in the rack, as CD said^. New tub, new shelf.

Nothing makes 'em shine like a good carnauba wax...:D

I use turtle wax. Works great. :rofl:

But really, I've heard some people just switch tubs with the females and they do great. I've heard that "washing" off the female isn't as important with egg layers than with live bearers.

I stopped "washing" them down years ago and have never switched up tub slots. They all seem to return to normal and get right back to feeding in a day or two...

Yeah being egg layers I've heard BPs don't need to be treated any different.but I've heard that some it does help moving them to another tub to get them from the scent of their eggs. Guess you just gotta find out what your snake prefers best.

I just switched tubs, no washing of snakes or switching of slots.

Yeah, I switch tubs, that's it. If they made a mess, I'd clean them up. But they're usually pretty clean & dry when I find them on eggs.
