Those are smaller than I would use. For adults I would go with a 8" or larger if you want them to be able to soak in it. if you are only using the crock as a water source a 5 will be more than enough.

well i keep my bps in tubs so an 8 inch might be a little bit on the big side. when they do into shed i always but in a larger bowl for the time

[The Serpent Merchant]

In that case I would get a 5.5" or 6"

currently i use 16oz deli cups

If you change out the water dish during shed then it doesn't really matter how big of a dish you use the rest of the time providing that your humidity levels aren't too low.

I have them in a rack system so humidity is never a problem. Thanks for the help

[The Serpent Merchant]

No problem

just out of curiosity, how exactly does the 4in pvc coupling prevent spills?, ive seen it used but idk exactly how it stops the snake from spilling the water.
