Lovely snake!

Though from the topic, I was hoping it would be pics of someone getting bitten!

I'll be honest with you, no matter what I do she's very shy and can easily get stressed out which is what people call a typical blood temperament. At least she's never attempted to bite me. She hissed a bit when I got her out of the vivtonight, and she got a bit scared when I dropped her in the bath. Afterwards she relaxed and swimmed about for over an hour.

UKBob (a member of this forum and breeder of bloods) said I should do this once a week to make sure she hydrates and swims a bit.

I've been keeping her in a good level of humidity, but still thought it would be good for her health.

Also, it's a good excuse to interact with her and handle her a bit

I have no personal experience but when I see bloods in shops they are often soaking in their water so I assume they quite like water anyway.

Very nice snake too mate.

The cats would be very tempted, but they are very afraid of water

To be on the safe side, we shut the door when she's having a bath, then she can relax and swim about
