Reed,

If the snake got out anything could have happened to it.
is this one of the baby pickeringii's I sold you??
If it is I will give you a nice discount on another one
you can either come to my house again or come to the reptile expo in Sacramento later this month as I will have the last of them available there

I do not know whether they absorb through the skin, but they are not like amphibians... they do drink.

I would NOT force water on him right now. He needs to be warmed up, I think. Do you have him in his viv? What is the temperature there?

75-80 .........

How long has he been at that temp?

How long has he been at that temp?

all day.....

[KITKAT]

Well, it is not temp then. Perhaps you could lightly mist his body, without getting water on his head... is there a reason you think he is dehydrating?

Since he has been warm all day, it is possible that this is a spinal injury. If so, it may improve with another day or two of rest, or it may be permanent.
