"a snake"? Ball python or what?

You live in TX, right? I wouldn't be surprised if it did drink due to heat or humidity.

Funny, most of mine seem to think it's a toilet. ;)

I wasn't expecting my post to cause a stir. I was unaware of the OP's setup at the time of my post so I suggested to monitor the humidity and have water for the snake available at all times. If the humidity in the enclosure was low, the very least that could be done is have water available for the snake to drink and have that help the overall humidity in the tank. If they had an enclosure where they had a hard time maintaining humidity for more than a few hours (such as the tank that the snake is being housed in) I do think providing a water bowl would help the snake if there is fluctuation with the humidity and it got too dry before someone could mist the tank.
