Help!

[Zincubus]

They are not a regularly swimming species and from what I have read soaking can be stressful for BPs, but I would rather have someone else vouch for that.

Retained eyecaps are awful, one of the few times I have soaked her is when she had retained eyecaps, as I do not want to use tweezers or tape to try and remove them, risk to the snake is too great. So I set her to soak and it certainly helped.

Hard part with soaking is keeping the water warm and not letting it cool off or be too hot.

I prefer humid hides, though with my BPs dislike of sphagnum moss humid hide use is my real issue.

They are fine being soaked ... sure they obviously try every nook and corner to find an exit but after a minute or so they calm right down.

Anyways I’m pretty sure all snakes can swim ..plus they can hold their breathe for absolutely ages, apparently.

Anyways I’m not suggesting deep water but certainly more than half their height .

You can use a sealed tub with air holes and cover with a towel to keep them calm .. place on their viv / rub to keep them warm .. for 20 minutes or so ..
