    Glad you mentioned this...it's a superb reason to "bathe" a snake: the swimming motion in mildly warm water helps to both hydrate and stimulate them so they can
    relieve themselves of "sausage butt" (aka constipation). For large snakes, use a clean bathtub or a "kiddie pool". "The end justifies the means." (sorry, had to)

    Something I should of mentioned. IF your BP takes a dump an them squishes it when roaming in the night (with no poo on the body) does that qualify for a bath?

    A damp towel will do the trick.
