I'm going away Sunday to Friday
Now my fish are all ok and just carry on as normal and my dog goes the kennel, what do I do with my python?
I know itwon;t need feeding and I;m sure its water will be ok and the temp is stable, do I need anything doing to it or someone to check on it, what does everyone else do? |

| Just get someone to spot clean and change the water. |

I have left mine for a week before when I could get no help, it didn't hurt them.
If you can get someone to check on them it helps, but in reality they will survive fine (most shops hardly check more than weekly, and don't get me started on snake boarding) |

| Fill the water bowl up as the last thing you do before you leave and the first thing you do when yuo get back, 5 days occasionally won't hurt. |
