As others have posted, bathing during sheds is a bad idea. I did it once and it actually messed up my BPs shed and she had problems getting it off in one piece which then did require a bath to help her get it all off. As for when not in shed, I actually do give all 3 of my snakes soaks in luke warm water in their totes and they actually seem to like it. They will dunk themselves and sit underwater for about a minute then surface and relax their head on their body and lounge around. they actually don't even try to get out lol. But all of my snakes get LOTS of out of cage time so they are all very comfortable sitting on the couch, bed, me or just about anywhere in the house. I would imagine if your snake didn't get much outdoor time and wasn't used to being handled, a soak in a tote could be very stressful.
