I’ve had my Beardie for quite some time now, 5 months I believe, and she’s been fantastic! Eats well, poops well, I’ve never had a problem. However, I’ve started to notice she absolutely WILL NOT drink.
I bathe her every now and then, atleast once a week if not more. Never, in all of those times bathing, have I EVER seen her drink a drop of water. She’ll just sit there, swim around, or attempt to climb out. Trying to administer droplets of water using a spray bottle or a syringe doesn’t work either. She simply ignores the water until I go away. The only way I’m actually hydrating her is through bath times and spraying her kale with water before she eats; and she’s not an avid vegetable eater quite yet anyway.
I’m wondering, how can I get her to drink? Could her breeders never taught her what a spray bottle is?
