Stimson in water

[daniel0]

Hi all

I just received a new pair of norminton stimmys adults and the male keeps soaking in his water bowl fully submerged, he is housed in a click clack in a rack system on heat mats with the temp being 31 degrees at the hot end and 24 degrees at the lower end, i house about 10 snakes on this rack the same with no problems could anyone offer me any help to why he continues to do this?

Check fore mites. look in the water bowl for drowned black dots.Is it due to shed?

No i can't see any mites in the water not sure if he is due for a shed, i have only had him 4 wks and i don't have any history on him.
