    Water bowl location
    I was just curious where you guys keep your water bowls inside their enclosures? I have mine in the middle of my tub. Is that OK, or would it be better to have it on the cool or warm side instead? I've always kept it in the middle, but I guess I just happened to wonder if that is best or if it even matters a great deal? Thanks for your opinions on this!

    I keep mine on the cool end though the snakes redecorate to their liking.

    All of my snakes water bowls vary. I do realistic tank set ups, so I set them up how they look nice, and mist every so often to help out the humidity.

    I put my bowls on the cool side, but just as stated above, they end up all over the place. If I move them back to the cool side the next day, I wake up in the morning to find them somewhere else. So, I let them put the bowl where they want.

    I keep mine on the cool side, but it does end up halfway across the tub on a daily basis.

    Mine always start on the cool side at the front most part of the tub... That NEVER lasts long, The next time the tub's opened the bowls been moved every which way.

    I keep mine on the cool end near the opening of the rack so they're easy to refill. My snakes don't move them so it's quite convenient. It's not really important where you keep it unless you have humidity issues, but I like having it at the opening so I can just slightly open the tub for a quick refill.

    I keep mine on the Warm end. I have my tank setup weird lol. I have the Heating Pad on one side and then the Lamp on another. But on the outside of his hut it stays cool so he has a Cool end and a Warm end.

    I put mine on the cool side, my snakes will move it around as they wish and recently due to the heat have been bowl wrapping.
