    Burm hates water?

    Curious on some input on my guy. He seems to get really stressed about water, only times he has ever bit me where both when he was little. 1 time being when I was holding him outside and my son was a jerk and sprayed us with the hose(light stream) the other time was also outside when I was taking some pictures of him and it started to sprinkle just the slightest and I picked him up to go back inside. Besides that, he has zero reaction to similar random pets/rubs and is fine to handle. I dont really believe in random forced baths since I keep my enclosures at the right humidity so sheds arent an issue and are perfect but I have given him a few quick baths after he manages to pee a whole gallon and of course everything stinks like it (including him) until washed. I make sure the water is a safe temp and not too hot/cold (temp gun it) and he still spends the few minutes being huffy and more interested in exploring vertically. I dont want it to be a stressful experience for him but also dont want to have a giant, pee smelling snake when I handle him. Suggestions?
