yeah, BE is right, I wouldn't do it myself tbh, but it's another option for people. |

Gotta agree with BE on this one. Personally, I would only do it just before the very last resort of force feeding. The main danger with removing the water bowl for a week is that you don't know how dehydrated the animal is before the water is taken out. Dehydration kills a hell of a lot faster than starvation.
Trust me. I watch Bear Grylls  . |

Thanks BE - he made reference to it in my thread but I hadn't heard of it and he hadn't returned to thread to answer the question. |

It's been known that if you take a snake's water away for a week and then offer a wet food item they will take it for the moisture. Not something I'd do for a snake that wasn't desperate. |
