Another victim of unexpected petshop pregnancy here. The three male babies are all separated from their momma and have been for a little over a week now. My question is, though, that they aren't really drinking from their water bottle. Nor do they really have a vested interested in it. They have a little thing of water that is down on the floor that I HAVE seen them drink from, so they aren't dehydrated. I'm just wondering if without having an adult around they have no idea what to do with the water bottle? I thought I read once that the male babies could really do with an adult male role model. My only problem is that I already have 7 and I'm not really interested in adding more at this time. But if that's what I have to do, I'll just have to think of a really good argument to convince my wife... ?
I'm okay as long as they are drinking some kind of water, I just worry about when we're both at work and if they tip it over or the water runs out, I don't want them to be waterless. If they're going to drink from a bowl their whole lives, maybe I should work out a non-tippable, bigger solution.
