is it really that bad and stressful for a BP?
i mean, they are quite adept at swimming and quite fast and can even hold their breath and dive. in nature, they cross ponds and rivers.
i am reminded of that funny picture of an escaped BP caught hiding underwater in a fish bowl watching a gold fish from below. and in all of the footage ive seen pythons just seem to hang out and relax and swim around calmly in water. if they really freak out, maybe the water was too warm?
of course, why do it if its unnecessary, but when you do it for example to drown mites, they seem to generally be totally fine with it.
