    I would wait at least 2-3 days after feeding. Trying to bathe or soak them too soon after feeding has a good chance of causing a regurgitation due to the stress and activity...

    Unless the snake is covered in piss and poop or bad shed, theres no reason to ever soak a snake especially a ball python that stresses so easily.

    They dont like, need it or want it, they tolerate it.

    Seriously?

    No.

    Instead of posting around here like a drunken sailor, how about taking some time to read some care sheets?

    There really truly is NO reason to soak your bp. This is very stressful and these snakes do not like to be in water.
