Hey sry for posting so much lately but this one really shocked me!
My snake has been weird for the past two days already, weirder than normal anyways.
But today I changed his water and later when he came out to roam he went for the bowl and at first I thought he is just drinking but then he dives into the bowl head first and his mouth and nose where submerged. He moved with his head and neck underwater along the sides of the bowl for a few seconds. I was so shocked to see this that I opend the enclosure fast and poked him to "save him". He then perched up and was out of the water.
This has never happend before. I don't know why he would dive his head under water if he wanted to drink.
It may also have been the case that he " accidentally" dropped into the water and tried to get back up but couldn't. It's a bowl that gets narrower at the top, so he might have gotten stuck under the edge of the bowl for a sec.
Nonetheless I can't imagine how he could have been this clumsy. He's not even a spider but today he sure acted like one.
My temps are correct. He was always able to drink normally without having issues with the bowl.
Have you ever experinced something like this?
Was it just an unfortunate coincidence/accident maybe?
I was really scared at that moment.
