Soaking. ..

It seems like no one uses water bowls big enough
for their snakes to soak in if they want to ?.
Is it good or bad for them to soak ?
It seems like the snake would know best, right.

I dont think giving them the option to soak is a bad thing at all, just not a necessity if your animal is healthy and your cage temps and humidity are in the ball park.

Good point , mine are good, the humidity is up
and down a bit but they always shed perfect.

Speaking of humidity. I have a 55 gallon tank and finally got my temps right. Now My humidity is off. I bought the large water bowl and have a wet cloth on the top of my tank that I keep wet but my humidity is still low on my gauges. What else can i do

I do give my snakes bowls large enough to soak in, and it seems a personal choice with them - 3 never soak, 1 soaks immediately pre-shed and 1 always soaks for 2 - 3 days after she's been fed. I like that they make those personal choices!

However I'm sure it depends on the species of snake - some may just not be water babies.
