    Water question?
    Just bought drinking water from the store because I figured the 2.5 gal container with a spout would be helpful once I refill it [emoji14] it says drinking water from a fluoridated municipal source.. what does that mean? Should I treat it with reptisafe?

    It means you paid for "tap water". No treatment is required, it'll be fine for your snake.

    That's silly. If your home is on municipal water then it's also fluoridated.

    If the water is safe for you to drink, then it is safe for your pets. I don't buy into the whole additives and water conditioners that the companies try to sell for a quick buck. As for well water, is it safe for you to drink without boiling it? If so then your pets will be fine too. And like bcr said, if the bottle of water said from a municipal fluoridated water source, it means its from their tap aka water from a faucet.

    I'm just curious why you bought water if you have a well. I'm assuming the well is water that's okay for you to drink, and if that's the case it's also okay for your snake to use.
