I believe the virility of many reptiles directly correlates with their going through harsh periods and less harsh periods.

The challenge in captivity is mimicking the right dosages.

Certainly, like you said, if somebody keeps a snake in a small box with a lot of heat, it would behoove (doesn't that word sound stuck up) him to prevent dehydration.

But in my 25 years of reptile keeping, I've not seen the problem in my collection and I think the issue is exaggerated.
