Do you ever see your snake drink?

[MikeV]

Hey guys.

Well as some of you know I got my boa a few days ago. But I dont have a question that is specific to boas so I decided this is the best place for this thread

Anyway

Have you ever seen your snake drink? so far I havent seen my snake even look at the water.

I think that some snakes just drink at night when we dont see it because we are asleep...

Any comments on your snakes drinking habits are appreciated

I have never seen my normal ball drink. I catch my boa drinking on a rare occasion. You'll know she's drinking after she defecates

Lol, cant wait for her first poop

I really want to see urates though because isnt that like hard pee?

Its itneresting that you havent seen your normal ball drink, how long have you had him/her?

[jfreels]

I've had him about 7-8 months now. Little guy is always hiding.

Yeah, you'll see the urates, mine already throws some out that look like large marshmallows

There will also sometimes be fluid too. I've had to replace the bedding in a quarter of the cage because of excess fluid. There was even a big urate. I was told that it just happens like that sometimes.

They drink.. Don't worry. It's pretty uncommon to catch them in the act. I find they like to take a nice long drink after a big meal...

I see mine drink pretty often.

Really? hmm maybe they are like people and like to drink with thier dinner lol!

I know they drink, I just hate how they are so secretive about it. they are so damn cute and seeing them drink would be a cuteness overload IMO

Cool! She must be a thirsty little snake then

I have many ball pythons, and I check on them often. I see them drink often, through the tubs. It's fun to watch if they continue while in your presence (most will stop when you walk by). I'd say I spot one drinking once a month.

If I only had one or two, I doubt I'd ever see them drink.
