I was thinking of replaceing the heavy water bowls I have since I replaced all the hides recently. I was just wondering do leos ever need to give themselves a bath or submerge themselves in water? I can get some cheap water dishes but they are small and I was wondering if they would ever want to get their bodys wet by crawling in their water bowl? Should I get ones that are larger so their bodys can fit in it or are these small ones fine?

Its ideal to allow them to have a water dish big enough to submerge themselves in (as long as its not too deep to drown a hatchling, etc). However if you have a humid hide then its unlikely they will ever choose to soak - unless the temps skyrocket.

Yeah I have a humid hide. I would prefer to use the smaller water bowls as it keeps crickets from dieing before they can eat them. I dont ever see them drink from the water dishes they always lick the humid hides. So as long as theres a humid hide I shouldnt need to worry about it?

No, they don't need to soak in a water dish. The humid hides will help them with shedding, otherwise, they naturally come from a desert type of invirenment. They originated in Afganistan and that type of region. So, a water bowl and a humid hide is plenty.
