Hey Dar,
The easiest way to tell if it is dehydrated, is to pinch the skin and see if it readily springs back into normal or if it stays in the pinched shape for a bit.
If it springs back, then usually fine, if it stays in the pinched position then yes, it is dehydrated.
The best thing for the snake is to drink on it's own, either plain water or a 50/50 mix of water and pedialyte.
A long soak, 45 minutes to an hour, every day will also help rehydrate.
I'm not sure if pedialyte is available in your area or not, though.
If not, then you may be able to make something similar. I will look for a recipe just in case and I'm sure some one else here has a formula also.
