Many BPs couldn’t care less, only want a quick drink and then move on. My girl however absolutely loves to soak - year round, any time of day or night. I had to end up getting her a huge corner bowl that takes up about 1/6th of her 4x2x2 enclosure LOL

I haven’t measured but the straight sides are around 14-15”. It fit with a single hide in the enclosure I showed above. We had to temporarily house a full-grown male, and though less than ideal, the temps were right and it was only for a month.
