    Re: Tap water or other?

    I just use tap water, it doesn't hurt the snakes at all. Plus it's easier to just walk over to the sink instead of walk all the way downside to a different part in the house to get bottled water from the fridge.

    Re: Tap water or other?

    I use both, depending on my time. Tap water or filtered water. I don't think it makes a difference.

    I use tap water, If my wife waters animals she adds reptisafe because she has pacman frogs the chemicals can hurt them but tap seems to be fine for snakes

    Re: Tap water or other?

    We use arrowhead water for our snakes.....even to spray down the cages. I know it is overkill but the hubby says....we paid allot of money for our snakes...therefore they get the best. lol

    Re: Tap water or other?

    We use filtered water for all of our pets, so it has just become habit. Using the Pur filter that's attached to the faucet is simple and easy..
