to swim or not to swim?

Tried taking Nibblet for a swim. It was the coolest thing! I filled the sink with two inches of water. Tested the temp: lukewarm (didn't feel warm or cool). The snake was wrapped around my hand. I lowered my hand towards the water and it went right in. Nibblet was gliding around at first, like just floating on the surface.

Then it started moving real fast, like it was freaking out.:eek: I thought maybe it wanted out! So I placed my hand nearby so Nibblet could climb to safety. But it kept dodging my arm. I was nervous, so I was gonna reach in and just grab it.

All of a sudden Nibblet pooped! Some gritty pale stuff (urate?) and then a dark blob (solid ramains?). Then it went back to gliding again, like nothing happened. I didn't want it swimming in poop, so I took Nibblet out, changed the water and put it back in. Swam around for about 5 minutes then looked bored. Dried it off and put back in viv.

I guess the fast movement was it's way of straining? :shrugs:
