Can someone answer my question please? - Bathing my snake.

They will try to hide in water if there is nowhere else to hide. It's a sign of insecurity, not enjoyment of water.

BP's go in water for three reasons mostly:

Insecurity - Not enough hides or places to feel secure
Temps - Too hot
Mites - Relief from mites by drowning them

Right, well it looks like I'm only going to give him a bath when it is absolutely necessary from now on.

Thanks everyone for all of your inputs. It's much appreciated.
