Hi and welcome... you will find great advise/support here for your new BP!

First, I would read the over-all the care sheet....
http://www.ball-pythons.net/modules....warticle&id=59


Then you can search "soaking" for some great threads to read....

Mine will lay in/out of their water thats in their tubs....

As for soaking, I really only soak if I catch one about to shed, in warm water.. NOT HOT ... or if one retains a piece of shed... again, read the threads available! Good stuff!!!


hope this helps!
