Stupid water bottle question

[mambo101]

Right now in the cage he is in, IhaveFonzie's water botter at a level he has to turn his neckand lower his head a bit to sip the nozzle. If I move it a notch, hehas to raise his neck a bit to sip the nozzle. I'm trying to figure outwhich would be better for him. He still seems to get the water OK bothways, but I'm wondering which is better for him. I hope this questionmakes sense.:shock:

Hiya mambo!

Not stupid at all!

I try to put the bottles at a level that is the same as their mouth when the bun is sitting.

However 2 of the buns go through such gyrations when they drink. Nomatter how I position the bottles, it always looks like they are almostturning their heads upside-down when they drink.

I'm guessing that it's another one of those bunnie things!

Greetings Mambo!

Had that situation with Ernestine when she first came tovisit. We think the bottle was too low for her because shewouldn't really drink from it. Moved it up, and she tooktoit immediately.

She and my others seem to prefer it to be up a bit rather than low.

I agree with the preference to put it higher, rather than lower once you know for certain he's comfortable with using it.

Is Ernestine still with you or did Buck and the Missus get back from CA?

 

[mambo101]

OK then, I'm gonna move it up tonight.

Ernestine is still with me, JimD.

All, of mine have theirs raised... At first I wasworried they would breath the water but they love it and won't drinkout of it lower. I have had to raise it 3 times since I owned Leo.
