That’s YouTuber Taylor Nicole Dean’s pet hognose taking on some fluids. You can see its little cheeks bulge as it swallows.
It’s a sight you may not have seen before as snakes vary greatly in how often they drink.
While some drink regularly, others get nearly all the liquid they need from their prey. Snakes can also absorb and lose water through their skin.
Some pet owners report never seeing their snakes drink at all.
