    Tap VS Bottled Water?
    What's your personal preference and why? How many snakes do you have to water? :D
    Personally, I use both. I'll use a bottle of water sometimes if I'm too lazy to walk to the kitchen to fill the bowl.
    Is one or the other better for the snake? I don't think they need fluoride like we do.

    Depends where you live. If the water is good for you to drink, it's good for your animals too. Don't over think it. ;)

    Everyone here drinks the same water, human, dogs, snakes, rats, mice etc.

    As for are many do I water? Anywhere between 55 to 200 snakes depending on the time of the year.

    You can always age your water for 24 hours or filter it using a Brita filter.

    I do not use bottled water for anything so I wouldn't think about using it for my snakes. That may be due to the fact that Denver has some of the cleanest water in the country.

    45 % of bottled water comes straight from the tap.

    To the cautious ones, do you know where you water brand came from?

    I am fortunate to live in area that has good and good tasting water. All of my pets drink what I do.

    If I ever come to your area to visit I wish to come prepared. :)

    I dont think what comes out the faucet is worse than what ball pythons would normally drink in the wild.
