got 2 new chinese dwarfs last week and im worried they arent getting enough/any water, i don't know if they know that the water bottle is a water bottle, ive tried holding them and putting it next to their mouth but they wont take any when i do that and a put a tiny bowl of water in the cage and they just tip it over, what should i do

no expert but try squeezing it lightly so it has a drip on there when they are investigating it, once they realise they will hopefully start using it to make the water come out themselves.

i would have thought after a week they would be showing signs of illness if they werent drinking, unless you are giving them some sort of wet food, fruit or veg type thing.

the water bottle is going down, i was just worried it was leaking.

Try feeding what they would eat in the wild. Green tea and crispy duck.


Sorry, but that was to open a goal to miss.

WQhat type of animail is a chinese dwarf anyway?
