Do you treat your snakes drinking water?.

I would have to disagree on this minor point. Unless I'm forgetting my chemistry, boiling water increases the temperature as well as the surface area, this in turn increases evaporation. Evaporation is how the chlorine is removed from standing bucket of water, so it would seem that boiling water would evaporate the chlorine faster as well. :shrugs:

Actually, chlorine doesn’t evaporate. It reacts chemically with organic and inorganic impurities in the water. Letting the water stand allows the chlorine to oxidize into chloride ions, which are not harmful. Heating execrates this process.
