    Water bowl question

    Hey!
    So I got a free Zoomed reptile feeding bowl (the natural looking kind) and was wondering if you guys think it would be safe to use it as a water bowl for my ball python?

    I'm not really sure if it would be a problem or not.

    Thanksssss!!

    Not seeing it, but why do you think it wouldn't be ok?

    Oh, Idk, maybe the material that make up food dishes are different than the materials that make up water dishes. So you think it would be fine?

    Still don't know what it is? I personally prefer glass water bowls...not a fan of plastics...they can leach into water, esp. when not "food safe" plastics.

    I have a hunch that most here WOULD use it though...I'm fussy.

    I see no reason not to. As long it's deep enough to hold enough water (seeing as it's a food bowl and those are usually very shallow in my experience) and it's big enough for your BP to soak in.
