Water bowl

What do you use for your snakes water bowls. Where do you get them?

A lot of people use plastic/ceramic dog or cat food bowls. They're available in many sizes, durable, easy to clean, and difficult for a snake to tip over.

I have tried many plastic ones and my snakes find a way to spill all of them.

If you are using newsprint or the like plastic ones like I use work fine very few spills here but if you use aspen or other substrates they do tend to tip. I get mine at every things a buck. I'll include a pic of them. I've seen people glue PVC pipe couplings in the tub and use deli cups to hold the water. That seems to stop the mess but I like a bigger bowl for soaking and humidity.

I use 3 inch white ceramic desert bowls from wal mart, I usually buy them out

Repti-rock, size L. Petco. $16
I know, a little pricey. This thing will never, ever be tipped over.
Looks like grey rock which is why I went that route.
It's a snake, not a kitty or puppy! lol

I use the plastic crock bowls. Light wright and stackable. With the snake collection growing, it makes it easier for me on cleaning day.

I use the PVC coupler/plastic deli cup method. I haven't had a spill in over a year. I got the idea from Justin Kobylka's youtube channel and it's worked really well. plenty of threads on the subject, but here's the only one I could recall off the top of my head:

Same here. I only have one big female that knows how to get hers spilled, but it's rare. When they go into a shed we replace it with a jumbo plastic dog bowl in case they want to soak...

I use plastic and ceramic cat and dog food bowls. My preference is whatever dollar tree has at the time in there. I also get random things to use as hide boxes from there.

x2.

I bought a couple medium Croc bowls for my two BPs, and (knock on wood) I havent had a spillage issue. I DO bury the bottom half in cypress mulch, though...just to keep the 'ground floor' close to the lip of the bowl.

I love the croc bowls. They're perfect for my needs, and a snap to keep clean.
