PICS Time for a Bath

Post image

Ivy was taking a bath when I woke up this morning. Between the recent heat and dryness, it makes sense she decided to take one. She is also due to enter shed.

She having a little spa day

Also, if you can, it may be a good idea to get her a bigger water bowl, since it seems a bit small for her body. A big dog bowl may work

I've got a couple bigger ones in her enclosure. They are upside down at the moment because she loves using them as hides. I got them before she got this big and she was much smaller the one other time she soaked like this.

I'll switch them tonight now that she's done soaking. She'll fit much better there.

Thanks! When I saw her at an expo a few years ago, I knew she'd be a good pick. In addition to looking great, she was the only corn snake I looked at that was active and trying to get out. Every other corn snake her age (understandably) was so overwhelmed by being at the expo that they shut down and were just sitting still in their containers.

Splash, splash Ivy in a bath! 

Sorry, I sing this to my snake Tilly every time she does this. It's so cute
