If you have a morph with a wobble be sure to keep your water dishes really small as they can drown (Spider / Champagne / Woma, etc..). I use 16 oz Dixie cups and I have yet to have a ball python even try to soak in the water dish. Sometimes they will have their head over the water when I open the tub and they do actually take a drink every now and then. The only time I had ball pythons really trying to soak is when I had a major mite infestation.
