Ice Cubes in the water bowl

[infernalis]

So do you??

the temps are hitting 100(F) + lately, my snakes seem to like ice in the water bowls on really hot days such as this.

I used ice cubes when I was trying to brumate them when I didn't have any cool spots, a dark cardboard box with a screen window on top, filled the dish with ice cubes once a day and getting temperatures as low as 55 degrees

I use ice cubes when it's hot. The snakes enjoy sitting in the water dish curled around the ice.

I also use ice cubes. I think pheobe likes it too. Moset times she watches me put them in and right after thy melt when the water is cooler she gets in. She also like when I pour cool water on her..lol other then misting.

When the tornado hit we lost power for 3 days, it got really hot inside. I used ice cubes a lot. Until, of course, the freezer lost its air, due to lack of electricity.. No more ice :D

J Ice cubes … we do need no stinkin ice cubes … it’s still raining and 68 degrees :D:D I wouldn't mind rain and 68 degrees! It's going to be 100 degrees here (or close to) And the AC in my car isn't working! I have almost an hour drive to work!!!:(

I'm happy with the cooler temperature, I'd feel bad for my frogs if we had a constant heat wave.

Never thought of that. It's been over 100 here for the past week or so, and the snake room gets pretty toasty. I'm gonna try putting an ice cube in there; they'll probably like it :)

Moreover, I have been keeping up with the warming trend and it doesn’t look good for most of you out there... hot, hot, and hot.;)

[RedSidedSPR]

Darn right. It's freakin 102 right now, and was 106 earlier!!

I wouldn't mind rain and 68 degrees! You would think so, but it gets to you after a while. It's been a year since we reached 90 degrees and when nearly every day of the year is gray, cloudy, cool and /or wet it wears you down and you get mighty sick of it.

Finally, summer comes, which is very short to begin with and still nothing. Still doesn't feel like summer. No relief from the dreary gray. Very little anyway. This is the second "non-summer" in a row. It's getting old. Mostly sunny and 70 degrees is all one can wish for lately, or sometimes we have to settle for just "not raining".

Poor garter snakes around here just spent Oct-April inactive and underground. Less than half the year is even warm enough to be active at all, and we're supposed to be in the middle of that active part of the year, and what do we get? Mostly rainy days in the low 60's. :cool:
