Pigs Don't Drink Water And It's Getting Hot

[Mhairi]

I put up a tiny hamster sized bottle today and one of the guinea pigs drank from it! First time I've seen any of them drink for ages. Many thanks.

I'm so sorry, meant to reply to this a few days ago but completely forgot! Glad to hear that your GP started to drink out of the smaller bottle. I have absolutely no idea why it makes a difference to them (or how they know it's different) but they do!

Smaller bottle = lower weight of water = less muscle strength needed in the tongue to push the ball in the bottle spout up to release water.
