I read somewhere that the snake should be soaked after shipping to rehydrate and clean off any urine and such. Is this not a good idea? I've shut the heating pad off for now until my heating pad thermostat comes in the mail Thursday. My boyfriend just went to Lowe's for the dimmer which I'm using for the heat lamp.
