    Re: accidentally stick in your Python into hot of water

    Get that poor baby to the vet now! How in the world could you not have taken the temperature of that water before you put your poor snakes in it??? There is NEVER any reason to not at least test the temperature of the water before putting an animal in it!!!

    Re: accidentally stick in your Python into hot of water

    Oh man!! Hit a vet now! Take both of them in immediately not just the male! There are very few reasons to need to put your animals in water but if there is a need you need to ALWAYS test the water temp. Please get these animals some help ASAP and then come back to ask how to properly take care of them please.

    Really???? How do you "accidentally" place an animal in hot water?? Sounds to me like the poor snake is severely injured and will be lucky to survive because of your carelessness.

    Your husbandry skills are as off as your grammar. Take those poor snakes to the vet. Why are you giving snakes hot baths anyways. If it was an accident that's one thing but there's no reason for a snake and need a bath anyways especially in hot water or warm water that is 120 degrees.

    u gotta remember that BP's/snakes are cold blooded animals. they are more sensitive to temps than us humans and other warm bloods. dropping them into 120degree water is like boiling water to them. please read up on the care of these animals.

    (and yes, i agree with everyone - WTF?!)

    I sure hope you're not just trolling the members here. :\

    How in the world do you accidentally put anything in hot water? Snakes don't even need baths, unless they have stuck sheds or are covered in poop. You don't need to put them in ANY water, cold or hot or temperate.

    Let's hope your Lokey isn't half dead.

    I hate to say this but for any snakes sake I hope he is a troll. This is highly irresponsible and illogical. Also why would he be trying to bath his snakes at 2am. And then he makes a post about his snakes names after 6am? By that time, not that i would have made such a mistake, i would have been at a vet having gotten them in the office early with an emergency call! Please be a troll or seriously be looking for help and a get started on a major overhaul of your animal husbandry as a whole.
