Interesting email about water...

[EclpsPrinc]

I have no idea who this is (Giverit) but they sent me this email:

I HAVE BRED THEM OVER 10 YEARS AND ALL MY DRAGONS DRINK WATER THAT IS NOT MOVING I HAVE 30 FEMALES AND AND 10 MALES HAVE HATCHED 1124 BABIES THIS YEAR AND ALL ARE DRINKING OUT OF A WATER DISH BEFORE THEY ARE SOLD .I PUT A BOWL OF WATER IN THERE THERE GET EXCITED AND DIVE IN HEAD FIRST AND GUZZLE SO I DONT HAVE A CLUE WHY YOUR WONT

I'm guessing they read the caresheet on our website. They sound pretty passionate about it. I guess ALL of their dragons are smarter than 98% of the beardie population. What do you think? :roll:

Wow! Mine doesn't either...

 

[GoFast]

Elliott will too IF I agitate the water first. In other words, if i take my finger and make little splashing sounds, he jumps right in. However if I just throw a bowl of water in there after the initial use, he won't do anything with it. I am pretty sure the guy is leaving out a part of his story

 

[EclpsPrinc]

I have only two dragons that will regularly drink from their bath and that is generally with a bit of encouragement.

 

[lacy_black]

Hmph he sounds like an idi0t to be honest and most likely a liar. None of my dragons touched water if it wasn't moving either by letting the water drip into the tub or by me splashing it.

Maybe years upon years of evolution and genetic programming ceases to exist in house.

Have to say i agree with lacy.My beardie dose not respond to a bowl of still water when he feels thirsty he gose to the kitchen and pours a glass himself lol

 

[EclpsPrinc]

Haha! Mine won't pour themselves a glass of water but they do clean up their own poop.

yeah, i've never seen mine drink from her water dish in her tank, but she loves it when i drip the water with my finger onto her mouth, she always drinks when i bath her as well, she's only ever gone for her water dish once and that was when i made it move with my finger but even then she preferred the drips off my finger... weird that his are able to do it straight away, without assistance as well

 

[Twobeardieguy]

I have one dragon that does but all the rest love to sit in the water!!

Its not just the content of the message that got me, but the fact that its all in caps. I guess im ocd (or polite) like that :roll:

 

[Taramarie1990]

haha, yeah i noticed it was in caps as well, so dont worry its not just you! do you reckon they want their point known? lol

 

[Twobeardieguy]
